Additional information

A round perfume bottle with a hinged cap set with a turquoise stone. The transparent crystal set is surrounded by a gold mesh with a grid pattern and punctuated with turquoise pearls. The combination of gold and turquoise was very popular at the beginning of the 19th century, between 1820 and 1830.turquoise pearls often lost their colour, turning from blue to green on contact with oil or perfume. This seems to be the case with our bottle.
