Improved Cold Cream of Roses

Prepared and sold by

Eugene Rimmel, Perfumer.

96. Strand, 128 Regent St.

24. Cornhill.

London

A very attractive and increasingly scarce lid with the Rose garland outer border, the compact lettering incorporates a variety of styles and is struck with varying intensity of blue to pick out the name and main address.

Dimensions:

6.7cm diameter top edge

6.2cm diameter flange

6.4cm base body diameter

3.8cm tall

Condition:

The lid has a small bruise on the right facing edge that runs slightly onto the surface towards ‘Regent St’, but this isn’t overly noticeable. Otherwise the lid is very clean with a couple of small stain spots and light wear and marks.

The matched base is ever so slightly larger than the base, but it still sits quite well and doesn’t look any different if stood up on display.

It has a chip on the inner rim, and a couple of smaller chips on the shoulder.
