Cut Glass Scent or Smelling Salt Bottle with Gold Screw Cap

Glass : Antique : Accessories : Cut Glass Smelling Salt

 

This cut glass smelling salt would have helped a lady recover from a swoon...caused by a gentleman? or perhaps the tightening of a corset that was simply too much. I can see her lying on the fainting couch awaiting her recovery...oh the images that come to mind when viewing this Victorian cut glass smelling salt.

The cut glass on this is without chips or nicks. The gold is worn along the edges of the cap revealing the brass underneath and telling us that indeed these were accessories well used in an era gone by.

Measures 3.25 inches

Item ID: 000780
