Victorian sterling Enamel Compact Florentine 800 engraved continental silver powder & mirror Italian sweetheart scene Italian Vanity case

I love these antique compacts that women would carry in their purses or set on their vanity. In Europe's houses of the elite and wealth , these beautiful objects of art were made functional and part of their everyday life.Imagine what a gift this would be from a gentleman to his soon to be wife as he proposes to her now?  This one has the original mirror and the little pan that holds the powder with sifter. This measures 3 1/8" long x 3" long. Rich cobalt enamel really shows off this romantic Victorian couple.. It is in good condition with a little wear on the front to the enamel ( although it might just be the design in the silver).  I don't know that much about compacts so feel free to ask me any questions that I haven't covered.
