I gather that a number of companies made powder jars with a variety of animals on the lids. I have seen, in person/’live’ Scottie dogs and lots of deer in pink and in this iridescent marigold. I’ve seen elephants and ducks in books. I have to admit to coveting the ownership of one and I have had my eye on a Scottie dog lid, but someone bought it from under me! Picked this one up at auction recently. I think it’s cute as a button and it is sitting on a table, keeping me company, next to me in my little office. Replacements.com states that the Jeannette animals were discontinued in 1920. That surprises me. I have seen them frequently and assumed that they were later productions. Doesn’t matter, I like my little poodle regardless of its age.
