This nineteenth-century French Napoleon III scent casket takes a shaped rectangular outline in dark brown ebonised wood, detailed with fine brass stringing along the edges and a central brass keyhole escutcheon. The hinged lid opens to reveal a red silk-lined interior housing four clear glass bottles, complete with gilded rims and faceted stoppers. The visible brass hardware shows light surface wear appropriate for age, while the timber maintains a dark finish. Measuring 9 cm high by 15 cm wide and 9 cm deep, the piece sits neatly on a sideboard top in a living room, hallway or bedroom, offering a decorative surface accent while serving as a secure container for small personal treasures.

FAQs

An antique perfume casket, or scent caddy, is a decorative fitted box designed to hold and protect perfume bottles, popular on French and European dressing tables during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.

Scent caskets were typically crafted from fine hardwoods, ebony, or brass, lined with silk or velvet, and fitted with hand-cut lead crystal or blown glass bottles.

Authentic pieces often display hand-cut facets, hand-applied gilded decoration, ground glass stoppers matched to the bottle neck, and heavy lead crystal weight.

Position the casket open on a bedroom vanity unit, dressing table, or living room console table alongside modern trays and books to introduce historic texture.

Keep the timber casket away from direct sunlight and heat, wax the exterior with natural beeswax, and clean the crystal bottles gently using lukewarm water and mild soap.
