Its a compact but I think you are missing a letter after Fa. http://www.powderkegcompacts.com/compacts.html

[h=1]Fanchon rouge compact[/h]Wildflowers grace the lid of this tiny goldtone compact, marked Fanchon rouge. A pretty piece for the lady with limited space: small details contribute to the big picture. The Colgate-Palmolive Company trademarked the Fanchon line of powders, rouges, face creams and toilet water in 1927; this piece has a 1930s look.

Dimensions: 1 1/2" diameter by 3/8" high
Price: $8.00
