ABOUT PRODUCTID 3397
This English perfume bottle, dating from circa 1900, is crafted from soda glass mass-colored in a saturated, emerald green. Its compact, flattened rectangular shape with rounded shoulders and a short neck reflects a utilitarian approach subtly influenced by the Edwardian era. Designed for easy portability in a handbag, the bottle features modest dimensions (height 8 cm, width 1.8 cm, length 4.5 cm) and a flat base marked '20 ccm' for capacity. The closure is a brass screw cap with a gold-toned finish, now displaying an authentic patina and wear from age. The semi-transparent, glossy glass contains visible air bubbles and subtle irregularities—characteristics of hand-blown glass from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The bottle is preserved in very good condition, without cracks or chips, showing only minor scratches and gentle traces of former use. This object quietly narrates the story of everyday rituals at the dawn of the 20th century—a time when even a small perfume bottle was a personal note of refinement. Its form, material, and patinated cap seem to whisper of mornings in Edwardian boudoirs, of fragrances tucked away at the bottom of a lady's handbag, of moments where practicality merged with restrained taste. The discreet silhouette, subtle green glass, and the pattern of air bubbles together evoke both the intimacy and the gravity of its era. It may be displayed on a narrow dressing table shelf, among other small antiques or as a solitary accent on light marble or dark wood to highlight the emerald tone of the glass. The bottle pairs well with Edwardian-inspired settings or eclectic collector's interiors, where detail and object history are valued.
