Antique sterling silver topped swans down puff Art Nouveau maiden design in cut glass pot

Here is a beautiful solid silver topped swans down puff in cut glass pot, probably from the 1910s to 1920s. This is the most beautiful powder puffs i have ever seen, in a brilliant larger side made from just off white swans down feather which are soft, fluffy and very thick. The round holding handle is made from marked "sterling" silver (seen in the fifth photo), it depicts a very pretty three dimensional art nouveau ladies head with flowing hair. The puff comes in a nice large clear cut glass pot as shown, the puff is in excellent condition the feathers are very clean, i have not cleaned the silver top so would benefit from a carful polish. The glass pot is in good condition with just two very tiny little nibbles to the inner rim of the base, please see all the photos.

A brilliant find for a collector. Condition: puff excellent, pot two tiny nibbles to inner rim. Puff measures 4inches across, silver top 1.5inches across.

Glass pot measures approx 5.3/4inches across, 4.5inches high. This item is made of swans down, feather, sterling silver, solid silver and cut glass.
