Vintage 1900's Art Nouveau ROUGE FIN Make Up Lesourd Pivert Paris (1945)

Rare Lesourd Pivert Paris Rouge Compact (remaining rouge is hardened.) Circa 1945 purchased at the end of WW2 Lesourd Pivert was a perfumerie in Paris which was established in 1876 and sold perfumes, toiletries and cosmetics at their shop at 24 rue Albouy, Paris. Like so many perfume houses from that time, much information has been lost, and there was no Internet to record them. This fairly obscure but beautiful house produced a long list of perfumes during their time. The company went into decline for a number of decades, and then was revived in 1940 and continued to present perfumes until around 1960.
