Description from the seller
Lot description: Very Rare Double Perfume Bottle – Red Faceted Crystal with Solid Silver Caps (.833), England, c. 1880
An exceptionally elegant and extremely rare object from the Victorian era: this double perfume bottle, manufactured around 1880 in England, is a splendid example of luxury and refined craftsmanship from the 19th century. The bottle is made of deep red crystal, lavishly facet-cut for a beautiful play of light and depth. At both ends lies a richly worked solid silver cap (.833), each with fine details that testify to high-quality silversmithing.
Double perfume bottles like this were used in the 19th century to carry two different scents in one elegant object. This specimen, with its striking color and high-quality finish, belongs to the most exclusive and rare variants within its kind.
