Fabulous and very unique sterling silver heart shaped compact on a sterling silver chain.
The compact has a hinged lid that opens to reveal a mirror on the other side. The inside of the heart is hollow and likely once held a powder puff.
Lovely engraved design on the front. Chain has beautiful fancy links!
Marked sterling on the back of the compact and on the clasp. The back of the compact is also marked F&B for Foster and Bailey.
