Isn't this adorable? I have not seen this Gwenda set before. This is such a lovely unused set with all the original accessories in super condition. The original case is clad in royal blue with gilt scrolls with brass hinges and clasps. The interior case, cigarette case and compact are like the day they were made. The interior case is lined with cream silk and cream felt. The interior hinges concealed with cream silk.

The powder compact is decorated with an attractive floral design. The thumb catch is typical of this brand - a scalloped shape. The interior all gilt with a very good mirror. The hinge is signed 'GWENDA BRITISH MADE'. The inner lid and the base have beautiful guilloche engraving. The original pristine felt pouch, silk and fabric puff and sifter are in place. All clasps and hinges work perfectly.

The matching cigarette case also has the scalloped thumb catch and jeweller's / jeweler's gilt finish.
Set within the cigarette case is an excellent mirror. The original cardboard still in place to protect the gilt finish from the cigarette clip. Just near the thumb catch the case is signed 'GWENDA BRITISH MADE'. All clasps and hinges work perfectly.

The presentation case, compact and cigarette case are well made, beautiful and hard to find.

This powder compact measures almost 31/4 " & weighs 93.3 grams and the cigarette case measures 3 1/2" X just over 3 "& weighs 93.6 grams.

The presentation case measures 7 3/4" X 3 3/4".
