Item Number: CC-10. CA (Canary)
Dimensions: 5½” L – 4½” W – 2⅜” H
Production Dates: 1925-1926
This box was used in the colored Boudoir Sets of the 1920’s. It had a short life span as a Confection and Cover, as they were only produced in three colors – Amber, Blue, or Canary. These are not common items, and worthy of special attention. When this same box was produced in clear crystal, it enjoyed a much longer life as the Handkerchief Box & Cover. Therefore, a Confection and Cover = a box in Amber, Blue, or Canary. A Handkerchief Box & Cover = a box in clear crystal. The colored Boudoir Sets of 1925-1926 included the following items:
- 1 Bon Bon
- 1 Large Cigarette & Cover
- 1 Small Cigarette & Cover
- 1 Confection & Cover
- 1 Small Cologne
- 1 Square Puff and Cover
- 1 Pin Tray
- 1 Comb & Brush Tray
