Mirror inside lid and has a ring which allows it to be worn as a locket. 1.7 inches across, holds 1/8 oz. (4 ml) solid perfume of your choice. Patch boxes came into use during the 18th century at the court of Louis XV, where the use of "beauty patches" was popular. A beauty patch was made of gummed silk and was pasted on the skin as a "beauty mark" to emphasize a woman's facial feature, usually the cheek.
