This early 20th century French Art Nouveau scent bottle dates to circa 1900. The cylindrical object consists of clear glass decorated with hand-painted white floral enamel motifs, gilded leaf accents, and ground glass on the neck. The enamelled flora features hues of white, blue, red and green within gilt borders, complemented by a faceted ball stopper at the top and a smooth cylindrical body below. The item stands 16 cm high, 5 cm wide and 5 cm deep. In a contemporary home, this cologne bottle sits on a bathroom counter or dressing table as a decorative accessory for holding fragrances or oils. The clear material and hand-painted details allow the piece to catch light effectively on a vanity surface, integrating easily into traditional or period-inspired interior schemes. Its compact proportions ensure it occupies minimal surface space while adding a decorative focal point to the room.

FAQs

Clean gently using lukewarm water and mild liquid soap, avoiding abrasive sponges or chemicals that could strip the delicate enamel or gilding. Never place decorated antique glass in a dishwasher, and ensure the interior is dry before replacing the stopper.

A small enamelled glass scent bottle works well placed on a dressing table tray, a bathroom counter, or a bedroom vanity unit. Grouping it alongside vintage silver-topped jars or resting it on a marble tray adds historical detail to personal spaces.

Authentic bottles typically display hand-ground stoppers fitted to the neck, hand-painted enamel details with subtle variations, and slight surface wear to gilded edges consistent with age. Look for ground necks and period-appropriate faceting on the stopper.

These items were crafted from clear or coloured blown glass, decorated with enamel paint fired onto the surface, and finished with painted gilt accents. Stoppers were individually cut or faceted to fit ground-glass neck openings.

Around 1900, during the Art Nouveau period, French glassmakers produced perfume and cologne bottles decorated with hand-painted enamel floral motifs and gilt detailing. These pieces featured faceted stoppers and botanical decoration reflecting the nature-inspired aesthetic of the era.
