FAQs

Victorian scent bottles were small, portable containers used for carrying liquid perfumes or smelling salts, reflecting the fashion and etiquette of the 19th century when strong odours were common in public spaces.

These pieces were typically crafted from sterling silver, cut glass, porcelain, and occasionally precious stones, often featuring intricate repousse or chased metalwork.

Authentic pieces usually bear clear British hallmarks, including a makers mark, standard mark, assay office mark, and a date letter indicating the exact year of manufacture.

This type of antique can be displayed on a vanity tray, within a glass-fronted cabinet, or on a dressing table to add a touch of historical detail to contemporary spaces.

Antique silver should be cleaned sparingly with a soft microfibre cloth and specialized silver polish, avoiding abrasive cleaners to protect the metal and any original hallmarks.
