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

This stylish compact is artfully constructed from solid brass, fully plated with 14k gold, and lavishly adorned with rich, colorful, carefully curated artwork. The legacy of craftsmanship won by British jewelers in the “Golden Age” of compacts inspires us to build the world’s finest compact mirrors in every last detail. Add a monogram for complete personalization. More info on what makes a Charles Mallory compact so without equal can be found on our Design page.

The powder compact, which can be used with loose powder or any standard ‘Stratton’ sized pressed powder, contains a removable sifter and puff.  For further details on using our powder compacts, visit our ‘Compact care and use’ page.

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.
