18 karat yellow gold powder case - Fascio Littorio - Italy 1930s

Splendid powder compact with mirror made entirely of 18-karat yellow gold in the shape of a shell with three large ribs in the upper part, smooth the central one while satin-finished the side ones. In addition to the hallmark of the metal, there is also the manufacturer's trademark, 123 FI, which corresponds to the old Castellani Armando's manufacture in Florence, active until mid 20th century. In the trademark is present the Fascio Littorio, introduced in 1934 and then naturally decayed with the end of the war. The precious item has a weight of approximately 140.00 grams for the gold part alone, and is still perfectly preserved.
