FAQs

Lithyalin glass is an opaque, marbled Bohemian glass developed by Friedrich Egermann in the late 1820s. It features a mottled surface intended to imitate gemstone minerals such as jasper, agate, and marble.

Victorian chatelaine scent bottles were commonly constructed using blown or carved glass, porcelain, or hardstones, paired with silver, gold, or gilded brass caps and suspension rings.

Authentic pieces feature dense, semi-opaque glass with complex, polished marble-like swirl patterns, often accompanied by period silver mounts, correct hand-cut threading, or fitted stoppers.

Miniature scent bottles can be styled alongside antique trinket boxes on a dressing table, displayed inside a glass shadow box, or arranged on a tray upon a sideboard.

Clean glass surfaces with a dry, lint-free microfibre cloth, avoiding harsh liquid immersions. Silver components should be lightly buffed with a silver polishing cloth to remove oxidisation without disturbing delicate mountings.
