FAQs

The Edwardian era, spanning the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, is characterised by elaborate craftsmanship, lightness of form, and heavy influence from neoclassical and art nouveau motifs, combining sparkling cut crystal with ornate sterling silver mounts.

These pieces typically feature heavy lead crystal cut with deep geometric patterns such as hobnail or fluting, paired with hand-repousse or chased sterling silver caps manufactured using traditional smithing techniques.

Authentic pieces generally bear clear British sterling silver hallmarks indicating the assay office, date letter, and makers mark, alongside hand-cut crystal showing signs of age-appropriate surface wear on the base.

An antique scent bottle can be displayed on a mirrored tray, dressing table, or mantelpiece to introduce metallic reflection and historical texture into contemporary spaces.

Clean the crystal using warm soapy water and a soft brush, avoiding harsh chemicals, and polish the silver gently with a non-abrasive silver cloth while keeping moisture away from any internal cork or paper liners.
