<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 362742, member: 2844&quot;]It is a gorgeous little compact. Have you searched around the edges for impossibly small marks?</p><p>It could have been made at an earlier date and engraved for a special occasion during the war. My mother was 16 in 1940, when Germany invaded the Netherlands. My grandfather anticipated he might not be able to buy her a nice present for her 18th birthday, and bought a gold and aquamarine ring right at the start of the war, to keep and give to her on her 18th birthday, if both were still alive. Thankfully they were, and she got the perfect present for her 18th. They both survived the war, and I have the ring now.</p><p><br /></p><p>They had lip pomade. They also had powder rouge, which this could have been for.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
