RARE ANTIQUE C. 1900 ' S FRENCH GOLD VERMEIL DORE ' FIGURAL GODDESS FLASHLIGHT
Item History & Price
As a collector of decorative display objects of art I found this divine French Dore' ladies purse flashlight many years ago at the antique market in Paris. I have used it for display of fine jewelry, and kept is safely in the original condition. The original glass light bulb is present and unbroken, however this does need a new battery to light. I have no reason to think it will not work with a new battery as there is no damage present.
Exquisite figural case in gold vermeil metal f...eatures winged angel goddess' throughout design. The figural case design is the same all around. The flashlight body slips in an out of the gold vermeil case.
In excellent original antique condition - like a piece of jewelry, it is very fine. I have not found a signature or mark but would say it was custom made by a jeweler for a wealthy client. Dates to 1890's through 1930's.
Measurements: 3" tall by 2 6/8" wide
