This porcelain scent bottle, created by the Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory between 1750 and 1760, is a prime example of the Rococo style. The bottle is decorated with delicate floral motifs and gilded accents, and is capped with two charming monkey figures. The playful depiction of monkeys, a popular motif in 18th-century decorative arts, adds a touch of whimsy to the elegant piece. This miniature masterpiece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, exemplifies the exquisite craftsmanship and artistry of the Chelsea Porcelain Manufactory.
