Description
A gorgeous and rather unusual Edwardian silver mounted scent bottle. The body is of globe and shaft shape with slice cut panels to the neck and star and vertical slice cuts to the body. Ruby has been flashed over clear glass and cut through to give a pleasing bi-colour finish. The hallmarked silver lid is of repoussé design and hinged, opening to reveal the original peg stopper. A superb collector's piece with a practical use.
