Description
The Leyendecker Collection celebrates the legacy of America’s first celebrity illustrator, J.C. Leyendecker, who captured America’s gilded age so perfectly in his art, and embodied its virtues through the courage with which he lived.
The Compact
Each of our compacts is artfully machined from solid brass, finished in true engine turned gold plate, and richly adorned with stylish, carefully curated artwork. Charles Mallory London not only gains inspiration from the legacy of exceptional craftsmanship won by British jewelers in the “Golden Age” of compacts, and in every detail we build upon on it. More info on what makes a Charles Mallory compact so without equal can be found on our Design page.
The Dual Mirror Compact contains two mirrors: a true life magnification in the top face and a 5x magnification mirror in the bottom face for incredible detail.
The Artwork
Commissioned as the cover for the February edition of Life Magazine in 1922, “The Flapper” was immediately recognized as a masterpiece. Her tantalizing expression, decadent and exquisitely detailed apparel, and the sense of freedom and ephemerality evoked by her Monarch wings all contribute to this alluring image’s status as the quintessential representation of that free spirited age.
