Handheld Compact

The iconic hand mirror compact—made famous in the 1940s and ’50s by glamorous brands like Volupté—was never just a beauty accessory… it was a statement.

Designed as sculptural little works of art, these compacts embodied femininity, adornment, and the ritual of self-expression—often featuring elegant, ring-adorned hands that captured the essence of old Hollywood glamour.

Now, we’re bringing that energy back with a modern take from A Shop of Things—infusing your everyday rituals with vintage allure 💋

Meet your new favorite “helping hand”: This hand-shaped compact is inspired by vintage gesture compacts, featuring a brushed gold finish, a bold red manicure, and engraved jewelry details.

Open it to reveal two mirrors inside—one standard and one magnifying.
Comes with a red suede pouch for safe travels, plus a custom box that’s perfect for gifting.

Super portable and easy to take on the go.
