Description from the seller
French Silver & Cut Crystal Travel Perfume Bottle – Guilloché Decoration
France assay mark, late 19th century, 900/000, and same date marker's mark.
Elegant French perfume bottle in silver and cut crystal, distinguished by its refined construction and finely worked decorative details.

The silver elements bear hallmarks, visible in the photographs, consistent with its French origin.
A particularly elegant example of vintage French dressing-table and travel accessories, combining the decorative quality of cut crystal with finely worked silver.
