A lady once carried all her important daily needs on small chains at her waist, called a chatelaine. Her chatelaine kept tiny tools and containers at the ready. Was this container for perfume, medicine...poison? Only the griffins know.
Glass bottle with filigree, on gold-fill chain with seed pearls. Hinged lid; glass stopper. Our research indicates this container is either a Victorian antique or a vintage reproduction for film. Bottle measures 2.5" tall, 1.25" wide. Excellent condition. Chain measures 50" total length. Chain slide has lost its grip - best worn doubled or tripled with clip fastened as shown. If you would like to buy without the chain, or see other chain options, please include a note with your order or email us.
