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

During the Victorian era, scent bottles were essential vanity accessories designed to hold perfumes and smelling salts, frequently combining hand-cut glass techniques with hallmarked sterling silver mounts.

These items were crafted from blown glass that was subsequently hand-cut with geometric patterns, topped with a sterling silver collar and lid fitted over an internal glass bung.

Authentic pieces carry British assay hallmarks stamped on the silver collar or cap, which denote the makers mark, silver purity standard, assay office symbol, and date letter code.

Small decorative scent bottles are typically arranged on bedroom dressing tables, vanity trays, or styled atop book stacks on an occasional table.

Wash the exterior glass using warm soapy water and a soft cloth, while polishing the silver cap with a specialised silver cloth to prevent oxidisation.
