This Victorian period spirit perfume bottle and stopper dates from 1860 in a Victorian style. The piece uses ruby glass and clear glass materials with a cut glass finish in ruby red and clear colours. The decorative scheme includes acid-etched grapevine motifs across the body, cased ruby glass sections, cut glass paneling, and a faceted stopper with a round finial atop a slender neck. The surface shows distinct paneling along the lower bowl and intricate geometric lattice patterns around the upper neck and stopper. Measuring 19 cm high, 8.5 cm wide, and 8.5 cm deep, this item suits placement on a sideboard top or display cabinet in a living room, dining room, or hallway.

Victorian ruby glass scent bottles are decorative glass vessels created during the nineteenth century, often produced using a technique where clear glass was flashed or overlaid with a layer of red glass before being cut or acid-etched.

These bottles were crafted using hand-blown lead glass overlaid with a thin casing of coloured glass, decorated with acid-etching or wheel-cutting, and finished with a custom-ground stopper to create an airtight seal.

Authentic period pieces feature hand-finished cut details, subtle wear on the base, ground-glass neck interiors matching the stopper, and minor variations indicative of manual glassmaking processes.

Display the vessel on a dressing table, a bathroom shelf, or a window sill where natural light can illuminate the contrast between the clear cut facets and red glass casing.

Clean the exterior gently using lukewarm water and a mild detergent, ensuring no abrasive materials or harsh chemicals are applied to preserve the etched and cut surfaces.
