This is an exquisite small double-ended scent bottle of cylindrical form, with screw-off and push button rounded ends, made by the well-known London silversmith, Thomas Johnson, in 1880. He had his first mark registered in 1850 at 10 Dyers Building in Holborn, London. The business was transferred to Sampson Mordan & Co Ltd in 1898. The scent bottle was retailed by Thornhill & Co. (marked on the underside).
The silver presents TJ, the Lion passant, the London assay mark, and date letter “E” for 1880.
