Green printed Crown Staffordshire factory mark with England: pottery production after 1891.
Hand-painted pattern number A2765 in puce enamel: decorator's record on bone china.
Hand-gilded lattice and scroll borders over cobalt blue: early twentieth-century miniature work.
Faint rubbing on the gilded handle rims: gentle handling over many decades.

This Edwardian miniature porcelain scent bottle takes an urn form with moulded twin handles, a pointed stopper, and a circular footed base. The piece is finished with a vibrant cobalt blue ground embellished with fine gilt floral sprigs and borders, complemented by a central hand-painted panel depicting colourful garden flowers in bright enamels. The glazed porcelain body measures 8.5 cm high, 4.5 cm wide, and 3.5 cm deep. Suitable for display in an English Country House setting, this scent bottle adds a decorative touch to a mantelpiece or a collection cabinet. The object brings period character to a tabletop vignette while occupying minimal space.

FAQs

An Edwardian porcelain scent bottle is a small, decorative vessel created between 1901 and 1910 to contain liquid perfume or scented oils. Often modelled after classical urns or amphorae, these pieces were crafted as vanity accessories and display items.

These bottles were slip-cast or hand-moulded from fine porcelain, fired, and finished with rich glaze grounds such as cobalt blue. Artisans applied hand-painted enamel decoration and liquid gold gilding before a final low-temperature kiln firing.

Authentic pieces generally feature backstamps on the base denoting the manufacturer name or mark, alongside hand-painted pattern numbers. Period examples exhibit fine porcelain potting, high-quality gilding, and precise hand-enamelled details.

Miniature scent bottles can be grouped together on a mirrored dressing table tray, displayed inside a glass curio cabinet, or placed on a mantelpiece alongside complementary antique glassware and ceramics.

Clean gently using a soft, dry lint-free cloth or a delicate soft-bristled brush. Avoid immersing the item in water, using chemical cleaners, or rubbing gilded areas, as rubbing can wear away overglaze gold decoration.
