stamped - Pat Pend.
This is a larger than usual powder compact, made of clear Lucite.  The lid has a mirror on both the inside and outside.  Inside there is a recess for the powder and a mesh,  which would cover the powder if there was any in there.  Measures 13cm.  The compact is in great condition with some minor surface scratching, which one would expect from a piece of this age.  The mirrors are also in great condition with only one or two spots of foxing.
