Lovely old ivory pyralin hair receptacle and powder jar from the 50's. These pieces differ slightly in color so are not a set. Powder jar is a little darker in color.
Powder jar has big floofy powder puff included with pyralin ring to handle it with. Quite large for the day. Stands 3-1/2 inches tall and is 3-1/3 inches in diameter. Striations in the pyralin run vertically throughout the piece. Hair receptacles were used back in the day for ladies to clean their hair brushes into. This particular one stands just over 2 inches tall and is 4 inches in diameter. Striations in the pyralin run horizontally over the entire piece. Marked, "ivory pyralin" on the bottom.Both pieces are in beautiful vintage condition. Slight marks from use and time. Not available for international sales. This item is made of ivory pyralin powder jar and hair receiver.
