I think it's 1950's, someones souvenir of a trip to the Eiffel Tower. I don't know why I like it, maybe the colours and that it belonged to someone else once.
My sister lives in Paris, so any excuse I get, I try to visit. There is a great flea market near to where she lives, which is where I bought the buttons from.
I love the compact - I would have taken it home too!
ReplyDeleteI am living through your French moment right now....imagining myself at that flea market! Ooo la la....Je suis jolie!
