Stratton was a British brand known for producing high-quality compacts, particularly popular from the mid-20th century. The engine-turned pattern, characterized by precisely cut geometric designs, adds texture and visual appeal to the compact. This particular design, with its wavy lines, is a common motif found on Stratton compacts from the era. These compacts were often made of brass or other metals and sometimes plated with gold or silver, giving them a luxurious feel. They were designed to hold pressed powder and often included a mirror and a powder puff, making them essential accessories for women.
