Love multi-era sites,fun find from yesterday.

Same site that gave up Civil war items also gave up this wonderful old lipstick case,early 1900's. It is marked Angelus Rouge Incarnation and has wonderful fleur de lis and other fanciful flowers engraved all over it. At first I thought it was a gun shell casing,I'm such a girl.

Neat! Thanks for sharing...

That's a nice one. Don't find many but when I do they're usually just plain.

Thats super cool! Odd thing is, the same thing happened to me about a month back and i thought it was a spent bullet at first but, nope, it was a brass lipstick case with the lipstick still in there. Amazingly, it still spins the lipstick up. Not as cool as yours, though.

No but it's where my husband dug a breast plate though week before last.

Edited because I found a puppy paw plate tonight and it was on my mind! Will post pictures tomorrow.

That is mighty fine looking. Here is a fancy one I found last year. I didn't know what it was:



I have to ask; did the color look good on you?

They made most things nice back then. Attention to detail and built to last. Hopefully that philosophy will be adopted again by the US.

As I was pondering what the heck it was I was trying to figure out why in the heck if it was a bullet casing why they would make it so fanciful. Pointman I like your lipstick case as well but not sure rouge and dirt is my color,haha.
