I was out rounding up stuff today to resell on ebay today and I came across a super awesome celluloid pink jewelry box. It had no jewelry in it but it was in awesome condition and at a two bucks I was loving it. I had never heard of Deltah (love the Bostonian spelling) so I did some research on it and found this vintage ad from the 1940's for the exact box that I bought. The ad itself is so great and I love even more that the box held pearls. Guess these were all the rage in the 40's too and had plenty of Hollywood Star endorsements. I only got the box - sadly no pearls but I am fine, you know I love boxes. I really did buy it to resell it but now think it gonna stay in Esco with me for a while. This weekend I will take pictures of it to post so you can see how beautiful it is. I am so not materialistic - I drive a freaking Saturn but classy and vintage and just to die for - this box made my day (not a sentence I have ever sad before, pun intended). I bet if I did have the pearls though that I would look damn good in them.
