A Very Fine Art Deco Solid Sterling Silver Dance Mirror and Compact

An elegant and rare Art Deco sterling silver dance mirror and rouge compact, complete with its original engraved silver ring and patinated long-link chain. Designed for a woman on the move, this compact was the ultimate evening accessory—eliminating the need for a handbag while offering both style and practicality. The exterior showcases fine machine-turned detailing with a clear initials plaque and a refined silver tassel at the base, adding a graceful finishing touch. The mirror remains in perfect condition, and the silver retains a soft, aged patina. It could be polished to a high shine, though many collectors prefer the authenticity of its original finish. The compact is clearly hallmarked “STERLING” and bears the model or production number 2885 within a gold-wash recess. The alpha markings confirm U.S. origin and adherence to sterling silver standards. This is a beautifully preserved piece of history, combining timeless craftsmanship with the spirit of 1920s glamour.
