ABOUT PRODUCTID 36554
This collectible Attar perfume bottle, dating from the late 19th to early 20th century, exemplifies the refined artistry of Middle Eastern craftsmanship—most likely Persia or India. The body, hollowed from natural bone in a soft, creamy hue with subtle natural variations, is finely polished and tapers elegantly upwards from a flattened elliptical base into a narrow, flared neck. The silhouette is completed by a precisely fitted, elongated stopper. The entire surface is adorned with intricate, hand-applied brown henna decoration: dense floral and vine motifs are laid down in a rhythmic, needle-fine pattern, with an ornamental frieze encircling the neck and a stylized flower crowning the stopper. The detail and proportions evoke the organic dynamism and finesse of the fin de siècle period. The bottle measures approximately 10 cm in height, 3.6 cm in length, and 2.8 cm in width. It remains in very good, collector's condition—smooth to the touch, with no visible cracks, losses, or signs of restoration, and retains its authentic historical character.Within this miniature vessel lies the spirit of the Orient—a distillation of late 19th-century luxury and beauty rituals. The bottle speaks with the voice of its era, when detail conveyed stories and everyday gestures: the gentle lines of bone guide the eye towards the lofty stopper, while the painstaking henna ornament recalls the body art and ceremonial decoration of its cultural origins. It is an object that seems to contain not only precious scents but also the memories and secrets of generations past.It can be displayed in a
