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

Silver-topped scent bottles gained widespread popularity during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, continuing into the 1920s as luxury dressing table accessories. Skilled silversmiths crafted hallmarked collars and caps to adorn heavy hand-cut crystal bodies.

Traditional scent bottles from the early 20th century were constructed using leaded cut glass or crystal combined with sterling silver or silver-gilt mounts. Inner glass stoppers were often included to prevent liquid evaporation.

Authentic British pieces feature official assay marks struck into the silver collar or lid, including a makers mark, town mark (such as an anchor for Birmingham), lion passant for sterling quality, and a date letter code.

These decorative objects work exceptionally well curated on a vanity tray, bedside table, or bathroom display shelf alongside framed artwork and small silver trinket boxes.

Clean the glass body using warm water and mild liquid detergent applied with a soft brush, avoiding full immersion of the silver parts. Polish the sterling silver collar using a silver polishing cloth rather than liquid polishes that can seep into glass crevices.
