This fantastic bakelite box is very art deco. The box stands on the little feet as shown in the photograph and the front then folds down so that all the items within the box would be laid out in front to you. There are little spaces where the items would sit and sadly there are none left but I will watch out and maybe will be able to replace some of the products. The box has quite a bit of information embossed on the back..........

I looked up Muriel Astor on the internet and she appears to have been from one of the wealthiest families in the USA and the UK so I doubt that she manicured nails for a living!
