Antique Green Glass Scent Bottle with Silver Case

This one is one of my favorites and if I can get the correct Sterling Silver case for it then it could be worth close to $1,000.00 bucks or more! It is from the mid 1800s and you would put smelling salts or perfume in it. The bottle is supposed to be held in an ornate sterling silver hinged case. I bought it without a case. I did at a later time find a sterling silver case that needed to be repaired but once it was delivered I realized that case was just a little too big for this bottle. The bottle should be snug and the lid hold the stopper in. Oh well it gives me something to search for. They are rare and hard to find and my luck I will come across one when I don't have the extra $$ ha ha. Anyway here is a pic of the bottle along side the case I picked up. The bottle is between the size of a quarter and half dollar. Enjoy!

Antique Cobalt Victorian Perfume Bottle

Here is one I sold some time back. It is an antique Victorian perfume bottle with a sterling silver lid. The lid's hinge was broken and there was a hole in the top of it that you can see the cotton sticking out of. It still had the little blue glass stopper in it though. I got a decent amount for it but had it been in better shape I probably would have gotten a couple hundred more for it. I might have more pics of it on my old computer. Ill check when I hook it up. Here is one for now. Enjoy!

Silver Overlay Perfume Bottle

Found another pic of this bottle from when I first got it. I actually took this pic with my cell phone and it didn't come out too bad. I would like to get some more like this in other colors but its rare to find one affordable.

Antique Green Glass with Silver Overlay Perfume Bottle

What we have here is one of my favorites. It has my favorite color (green) and is a small bottle on top of that. The silver overlay just makes it that much nicer. This is a perfume bottle and I believe it is from the mid to late 1800s based on some of the research I have done. I am not an expert though so if you know better please let me know, I'm still learning. I had one that was a little bigger then this one. It was a black bottle when I bought it online (due to being dirty and tarnished), and when I got it didn't know exactly what it was. Cleaned it up, did a little research and was surprised at what it was.  I did keep it for awhile but did eventually sell it. I didn't want to get rid of it but when I saw what it was going to sell for I had no problem  ha ha.

So I was pretty happy when I saw this one for sale since I did want to replace the one I used to have. Especially at the price that was being asked. I think I like this one a little more since it is actually smaller. I added my fingers and a dollar bill in a couple of the pics below to show the size better. I tried to get decent pics but the lighting was not what I wanted, but still not bad. Enjoy!

First Post

Well, here we go with the first post. Just want to see how this shows up. I will be adding pics and descriptions of items I have and new ones as I find them. The kind of items I collect vary. I like antique glass items, especially snuff, scent, and perfume bottles. I do have a passion for antique and vintage items in general though so I do have and will be posting more then just bottles and glass. 


Here are a few pics of my collection out of the cabinet several years ago. I still have most of these in storage out of state. A few of the bottles I have been sold and others have been added since. When we move into the new house and I get this part of my collection out of storage I will update with new pics. I do have some individual pics of some of these bottles I will add later on so you can get a better look at them. Also, I have since bought a way better camera so the new pics will be much better.  If you have any questions or comments please don't hesitate. Enjoy!
