makeup compact help

[millerb91]

Idk how old it is or the year or who made it maybe someone can help. On the top it has a round impression but nothing that I can read. Any ideas? Thanks.

At that size, I'd think more like a pill holder. Can't help on the age.

It could be a rough compact, but I would need to see more photos, especially the top of the lid. Neat find, Breezie

its a compact...Maybe from the 60's or earlier..that looks older thou, from the hinges...I have found several, mark and unmarked...maybe next time it will be full of coins

I forgot to ask, you said the top had a round impression, by chance does it say Pompeian Bloom, Tangee, or are there any letters you can make out? Breezie

No letters that I can see but around the round impression are 3 line. 3 on top. 3 on bottom. And 3 on both sides if that makes sence

After a nice slow bath I found words saying three flowers Richard hudnut and a Lil research later I found out it's from 1915!! Older then I thought here is a link about this guy.
