Buyer's premium:

A collection of commemorative items associated with Althorp House and Diana, Princess of Wales. The collection features a silver-tone metal compact mirror, designed with a raised quilted-diamond pattern on its exterior. A central button-like embellishment, set with a clear stone or crystal, secures the flap. The flap is embossed with a stylized crest and the word ‘ALTHORP.’ When opened, the compact reveals two rectangular reflective mirror surfaces. Also included is a light blue cardstock brochure or book, bearing the ‘ALTHORP’ crest on its cover and featuring a large color photograph of Althorp House. This publication is likely ‘Althorp’ edited by Alec Jolly (ISBN: 9780948308147), as suggested by web research. Further accessories comprise a small white presentation box, marked with the ‘ALTHORP’ crest, light blue tissue paper, and a small black and white photographic print depicting a portrait of Diana, Princess of Wales.
