Dainty Powder Boxes and Caricature Pins

Square little powder boxes, with colored enamel tops and center settings in cut-out motif, acquire an antique touch in a little protruding edge of engraved gold. A mirror is the only adjunct, aside from the powder which the box may contain, for it is taken for granted that only powder is required after milady has stepped from her boudoir for the evening ball or party. Black is the favored choice in these little boxes, with navy next and the pastel shades of rose, yellow, lavender and green following.

Caricature pins made of white metal resembling platinum, and set with small rhinestones, are being featured in an array of sizes and designs to suit the many demands made. Squares, ovals and angular shapes of solid design or cut-out, as well as those with figures surrounded by a fine framework, may be worn as hat ornaments, shoulder pins or belt buckles.
