Puckerings has dated this piece to the 1920s.
The top is made from a glossy polished piece of Tortoiseshell with a delicate silver pique inlay.

The hinged lid lifts to reveal a compartment, presumably created for some kind of cream; this entire lid then lifts off from the glass; I have never had this kind of double action lidded jar before.
Excellent condition and ready for use, measuring 4 1/2" in diameter and standing 2 1/4" tall.
