I was so surprised to see a celluloid fan with an Egyptian Revival theme. They are usually smaller with floral and cutout decoration. This one is so unusual with its Egyptian Revival decoration. It is £68. Unicorn.

Pygmalion Globe Compact


This is the second of my lucky finds! It is a gilt, Pygmalion, globe compact. It has sifter, puff, and the black material drawstring pouch. The mirror has a few marks and the puff has a small split - but the compact itself is in good condition. Price £95

Kigu Bouquet Compact with Floral Lucite Top


I have been lucky - and have managed to buy 2 interesting compacts. The first is a Kigu "Bouquet" compact with a floral "roses" lucite top. The photo is from the top - but sideways it is in the shape of a flat bottomed, half ball. It has a carrying handle. It is in good condition and has the sifter and puff. It is a long time since I had once of these in good condition.

Price £95

2 ANIMAL PENDANTS


Bought these two wonderful animal pendants - but we have all disagreed about what they are! Are they cats, dogs or March hares! Anyway they are quite mad and I love them! They are in gilt metal and are quite big - they are approx. 2 1/2 x 3 inches - on a gilt chain. There are no maker's marks on them. They are £65 each.

Red Galalith Art Deco Necklace


You could not get more Art Deco than this galalith and white metal necklace! It was made in Czechoslovakia in the 1930's. It is very light and easy to wear. I love these necklaces - which were often made by a factory called Jacob Bengel in Germany. This one is great because it's origin is different - and it doesn't look quite the same. It would look good with some 1930's clothes - but equally it would also go with a contemporary outfit! More details on my web site - www.gillianhorsup.com

Norman Hartnell Faux Pearl and White Paste Necklace


Thrilled to find a Norman Hartnell necklace - haven't had anything of his for so long. He was the Queen's dressmaker for many years and also designed his own jewellery. This is a very simple necklace of faux pearls and white paste forming a necklace of small flowers. It is marked on the back. Would be ideal for a wedding. It is £120. www.gillianhorsup.com

ART DECO SHORT HAT PIN


I used to be able to buy these Art Deco short hat pins/hat flashes/cloche pins - depending on your choice! They are now getting hard to find - especially the double ended, coloured ones. Was pleased to get this one - and can supply an end for it if you need one. They look great in hats or on jacket lapels - especially if you are in to Art Deco! They are usually made of celluloid. www.gillianhorsup.com
