Antique Cut & Etched Glass Double Ended Scent Bottle with Silver Engraved Detail

19th century
Description

This antique double perfume bottle is a beautifully crafted piece that combines the elegance of cut and engraved crystal glass with the finesse of silver detailing. The crystal glass is intricately engraved to depict two female figures surrounded by floral motifs, showcasing the fine craftsmanship and attention to detail that characterize antique glass.

Measuring 14 x 3 cm, this bottle is compact and designed for practical use while also being an exquisite decorative object. The double-ended design is both functional and elegant, allowing two different perfumes to be stored simultaneously, a common practice in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

The engraved silver detail adds a touch of luxury and complements the clarity and brilliance of the crystal. The silver stoppers or mounts are likely adorned with intricate engravings, enhancing the decorative appeal of the piece and ensuring a secure closure of the contents.

This perfume bottle would be a valuable addition to any collection of antique glass or perfume bottles, offering a glimpse into a time when personal toiletries were both functional and true works of art. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a treasured item for collectors and lovers of antique decorative arts.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Popular during the Victorian period, double-ended scent bottles featured two separate glass compartments, designed to hold liquid perfume at one end and aromatic smelling salts or vinegar at the other.

These items were typically crafted from clear, ruby, or cobalt cut glass and fitted with sterling silver, silver-gilt, or nickel caps featuring screw-top or spring-hinged mechanisms.

Authentic pieces generally display period metalwork, hand-cut or etched glass patterns, cork or glass stoppers inside the caps, and English silver hallmarks or makers marks around the collars.

Small vanity items look effective when grouped on a mirrored tray, displayed on a bedroom dressing table, or arranged inside a glass-fronted cabinet alongside other antique glassware.

Clean the glass exterior using a dry microfibre cloth or gentle cotton swab, and buff the silver mounts lightly with a specialist silver polishing cloth while avoiding liquid cleaners near the glass seals.
