Perfume bottle c. 19th century

This small, 19th century, purple glass perfume bottle is a testament to the artistry of anonymous glassblowers. The bottle's faceted form and simple, silver cap are indicative of the craftsmanship common to the era. The bottle’s small size and its delicate, faceted design hint at its intimate use, likely belonging to a private collection of perfume, a common practice during this time period.
