FAQs

Victorian perfume bottles are characterised by intricate craftsmanship, often featuring hand-cut crystal or glass bodies paired with precious metal tops, reflecting the periods emphasis on personal grooming accessories and dressing table elegance.

These bottles were typically crafted from lead crystal or coloured glass, frequently decorated with deep diamond cutting or flash overlays, and fitted with hallmarked sterling silver, silver-gilt, or sometimes gold caps.

Authenticity is generally determined by examining silver hallmarks for assay office stamps and date letters, alongside observing the hand-cut facets, wear patterns on the base, and the presence of a ground glass stopper.

An antique scent bottle can be displayed on a mirrored tray atop a dressing table, within a glass-fronted cabinet, or styled on a bathroom shelf to add a touch of historical texture and reflective detail.

Clean the glass gently using lukewarm water and mild dish soap, avoiding harsh chemicals, and polish the silver components with a dedicated microfibre cloth while avoiding direct contact between silver polish and the glass surface.
