Vintage My Lady Fayre Manicure Set with Jockey Club Flordgen Perfume Bottle
This lot comprises a vintage manicure set and a small perfume bottle, presented together as a collectible dressing table or travelling grouping. The set is housed in a navy leather pouch embossed with the name “My Lady Fayre” in gold script and closed by a dark round snap fastener. Four small metal manicure implements with red handles accompany the pouch, two with spatula-type ends and two with narrow blade or file-style ends. The perfume bottle is a small glass flask with a metal screw cap and a paper label reading “Jockey Club” and “Flordgen”, decorated with a pink flower illustration.
Condition and Collector Appeal
The leather pouch shows general surface wear, and the metal implements display tarnish and light surface oxidation consistent with age. The glass perfume bottle has visible staining and discolouration, and the paper label shows signs of wear. The lot is offered in the condition shown and is not described as complete. Items of this kind, combining a branded travelling manicure pouch with a named vintage fragrance bottle, may appeal to collectors of vanity ware, vintage toiletries and period advertising ephemera.
