Description
A fabulous silver and enamel scent bottle case in the Art Deco taste. Inside is a small hallmarked bottle of ovoid form with a screw top. The stunning case is hinged, with sapphire blue guilloche enamel panels to front and back. The base is flat and the hinged body is gently curved, making it a lovely and tactile piece, closing with a pleasing 'snap'.
Inside, the case is finished in parcel gilt and has an articulated and openwork galleried frame to hold the bottle. A superb and rare example, both decorative and collectable.
The internal silver bottles were often made separately, giving a slight disparity in date and maker.
