England or France, c. 1890–1915
A beautifully preserved antique scent bottle of hand-blown glass adorned with an ornate repoussé silver mount. The hinged cap opens to reveal its original hand-ground glass stopper, still nestled securely within its collar after more than a century.
Once intended to carry precious perfume or aromatic oils, this intimate object would have accompanied its owner throughout daily life, offering a quiet moment of beauty with every opening.
The richly chased silverwork, flowing with floral scrolls and botanical ornament, contrasts beautifully with the purity of the clear glass beneath. Together they create an object that feels equally at home upon a dressing table, within a cabinet of curiosities, or among a collection of devotional treasures where fragrance itself has long symbolized prayer, remembrance, and the unseen presence of the sacred.
Complete examples retaining both their original stopper and hinged silver mount have become increasingly difficult to find.
