This beautiful and highly sought after ESTEE LAUDER IMPERIAL PRINCESS is now available for bid with no reserve. It is a vintage piece from 1981 but is amazingly beautiful still! As always, the Estee Lauder detail, depth and colors are lovely despite the item's age - perhaps it has a touch more patina because of the years. It originally contained Cinnabar and the label is in place although worn.
This a true work of art. The detail and use of colors is just incredible. These are highly collectible pieces of art work, and are produced one time a year and are never made again. This, along with the design, makes them most highly collectible both in the U.S. and around the world. Special editions are rare and highly sought after with the prices on these vintage items continuing to rise over time.
This is a very substantial piece. Amazing detail. This will make a wonderful addition to any collection. This is a rare and very hard to find compact. A must have for the serious compact collector. This item will go quickly, so bid while you may! Best of luck bidding.

What is solid perfume?
Solid perfume is the unique patented formula of fine scent oils combined with beeswax and other oils to make a semi-solid fragrance that is much more long lasting than alcohol based perfume. The scents actually remain true to the original formulary for decades, making it a very desirable way to use scent. Just rub a bit on your finger, apply it to your pulse points and enjoy the way it clings subtly all day!
Why does the price of an item vary?
For collectors of these solid perfume compacts there are several issues that determine the item’s value. 1). Is it full of the original perfume?
2). Does it have the original label attached? 3). Does it come with the presentation (gift) box? 4). Does it come with the original outer shipping box? For each “Yes” the value of the item increases in value for a collector.
