Kiev Vanity Set (Vega 2, spy)

The Kiev Vanity Set built around the Vega 2 is a Soviet-era subminiature outfit, with the camera disguised within a cosmetics-style case for covert use. It belongs to the small format of Kiev's spy-camera lineage rather than the brand's better-known 35mm rangefinder line.

Sales data for this set is extremely thin: a single UK auction hammer result of £600 from 2014 is the only reference point on file, so today's value should be treated as indicative rather than a current market price. Because hammer figures are wholesale levels achieved at saleroom level and exclude buyer's premium, dealer asking prices for a complete, presentable example would typically sit higher than this benchmark.

Sales History

Prices shown are UK auction hammer results — the wholesale level achieved in the saleroom. Neither buyer’s nor seller’s commission is included. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.
