Antique celluloid hanky box and hanky. Lovely celluloid box featuring a young lady wearing a puffy purse that looks very similar to the antique beaded purse I have for sale! These boxes were popular during the Victorian era. The top of box is in good display condition; sides are missing some paper as is common on these fragile boxes. Nice detailed brass clasp and hinges. Inside tag reads: Handkerchiefs. A lot of wear and tears on interior of box; appears to be pink silk. It has an old red/white paper label on bottom that I believe is an Italian label. You can cut some velvet or silk and redo the interior, or add your favorite hankies or collars to hide lining. You also get the nice lace edged hanky with original foil tag: FISBA Stoffels Swiss Made. The box is 7.75 wide x 6.5 long x 2.75 tall. The paper on these boxes is very delicate and fragile, so be careful when handling them. The perfect accessory item to display on an antique dresser or shelf in your Victorian home!
