Description from the seller
Exquisite antique crystal vanity set, comprising a perfume bottle and a miniature lidded box, dating to the early-mid 19th century.
Both pieces are masterfully cut from fine crystal and decorated with delicate hand-cut floral motifs, featuring roses and leafy garlands executed with remarkable precision and elegance. The refined carving enhances the clarity of the crystal and reflects the high level of craftsmanship characteristic of luxury vanity objects of the period.
Each piece is fitted with an original silver lid, finely crafted and stamped with the Minerva hallmark, attesting to the quality of the silver and confirming their authenticity.
Preserved in exceptional condition, the set shows no notable damage and retains its original brilliance and structural integrity—an especially rare quality for objects of this age.
This vanity set represents a highly desirable example of 19th-century decorative crystal, combining refined artistry, noble materials, and excellent preservation. A rare and elegant ensemble, perfectly suited for a distinguished collection of antique crystal or luxury vanity objects.
