アメリカ国旗を思わせる赤白とスターマークをモチーフとしています。素材もコンパクトに使うには重たい銅製で、形も装飾的なものは省かれたところに時代の空気が感じられます。このコンパクトの魅力は、鏡の裏に写真を入れることができるところです。戦地に赴いた大切な人の無事を星に祈ったのでしょうか。

The motif of red and white with a blue star brings to mind the American “Stars and Stripes.” This vanity compact was made from copper, making it heavy. No decorative design was applied to this vanity compact, so you can feel the atmosphere of that time. A picture can be placed behind the mirror that appears when the lid is opened. Women may have wished upon a star for the safety of a loved one who went off to war.
