Edwardian scent bottles, produced during the reign of King Edward VII, frequently feature intricate sterling silver repousse work, delicate glass techniques, and refined craftsmanship tailored for dressing tables.

These items were typically constructed from blown or moulded glass, paired with hallmarked sterling silver mounts, screw caps or hinged lids, and sometimes internal glass stoppers.

Authenticity is verified by checking for clear silver hallmarks indicating the assay office, date letter, and makers mark, alongside period-correct glass manufacturing characteristics such as pontil marks and hand-cut threads.

It can be displayed on a vanity tray, mantelpiece, or open shelving to introduce textural contrast, reflective metallic elements, and a touch of historical interest to the room.

Glass should be gently washed with mild soapy water, avoiding harsh abrasives, while silver mounts require careful cleaning with a specialized microfibre cloth and non-abrasive polish to protect the hallmarks and embossed details.
