This green satin glass figural powder jar was made by Phoenix Glass Co. and is known as CAMELLIA . Referenced on pages 40-41 in Whitmyer: Bedroom & Bathroom Glassware of the Depression Years, and also in Fantastic Figurines by Mary Van Pelt

The Art Deco era jar has a lid with a seated flapper nude female figural, with one outstretched leg and one leg bent at the knee and extended to the side. One arm rests on the lid, while the other is demurely resting over her lap. The attention to detail of her features, hair and figure are exquisite The jar has a gently rounded square shape with a large embossed camellia blossom on each corner. The craftsmanship is characteristic of fine Phoenix Art Glass, and the uranium glass glows brightly in UV light

Dimensions are about 8 inches tall, with the figural at 3.5 inches and the base measuring 4 3/4 inches square. A minuscule flake off the inside lid rim and slight roughness on the base rim, otherwise excellent condition
