A sophisticated perfume bottle crafted from cut crystal and encased in a lace-gilded bronze frame featuring delicate decorative reliefs. The lid showcases a prominent design of a shell surrounded by elements of nature and foliage. Dating back to the mid to late 19th century, this flask exemplifies the aesthetics of the ‘Second Empire’ era, overseen by Napoleon III from 1852 to 1879 and reflecting the prevailing taste for symmetry and a commitment to elaborate ornamentation during this period. It measures 15 cm in height, with dimensions of 7 cm in both width and depth, serving not only as an aesthetically pleasing and functional item but also providing not a substantial holding capacity. It is in very good condition.
