Vintage Green Hair Receiver with Painted Lid – Early Plastic Vanity Jar
Couldn't load pickup availability
This translucent green hair receiver likely dates to the early 20th century and features a painted lid in a style reminiscent of celluloid. Once used on vanities to collect hair for reuse in pincushions or decorative hairpieces, it now makes a quirky and collectible addition to any vintage display.
The lid shows wear — including chipped edges, flaking paint, and a slightly warped fit that keeps it from closing tightly. Still, it rests in place for decorative use and remains full of charm.
📍 Origin: Unknown
🧵 Material: Believed to be early celluloid plastic
📏 Size: Approx. 3.25" tall x 4.25" wide

A wonderful conversation piece for lovers of vanity decor or early plastics.
