CONDITION:
VERY GOOD. This Victorian Silver scent bottle still possesses her textured repoussé embossing with very little wear to the ornate pattern so typical of the era. The lid screws on tightly and is secure, though it has a few dings to it consummate with age, and the piece overall is otherwise in lovely condition. The hallmarks on the bottle are crisp and the lid and jump ring also have worn but visible hallmarks.
