Hi guys, if you want to know what was the first antique item I collected? Here it is! Finally I post the item here.

It is a silver powder compact which I bought from an antique shop in Cologne, Germany.

There is a 925 hallmark on the side. And there is also another mark after the 925 mark. However I am not entirely sure where this compact came from.

Probably this compact is American? Or is it German? Any clue please let me know…
