AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An exquisite and elegant antique Edwardian sterling silver mounted art glass scent (perfume) bottle. This beautiful dressing table piece features a heavy, globular glass body with striking spiral-moulded/ribbed detailing.
The glass features a spectacular iridescent finish, casting a subtle, pearlescent shimmer and rainbow glow that shifts beautifully when catching the light.
The silver collar is fully hallmarked with the Birmingham Assay Office anchor, the Lion Passant for sterling silver, and the date letter "o" for 1913. It also bears the maker's mark "OP".Adding immense collector value, the piece is accompanied by its historic original paper retail label from the prestigious Lowe & Sons Silversmiths (Bridge Street Row, Chester) – a legendary establishment founded in 1770 and highly celebrated for fine antique silver.
