It was made for a dressing table and works just as well on a vanity, a bar cart, or a shelf of small glass. The neck is open and the stopper is missing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e[d]Dimensions | 3.75 in. Dia. x 5 in.

The gilt decoration is worn, faded, and smudged in places. The stopper is missing, so the bottle has an open neck. The inside of the neck has brown residue from former contents. The collar is unmarked and non-magnetic, and I assess it as silver plate or silver, though no mark establishes which. Its rim has a few small dents and marks, and there is some tarnish near the lip. A black band sits at the base of the collar, and I do not know whether it is original to the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003ePlease review all photographs closely, as they form part of this description.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austyn Marie Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67636984348950,"sku":"ENM-2297","price":375.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/4623\/5926\/files\/October_2026-12885.jpg?v=1791908479","url":"https:\/\/austyn-marie-design.myshopify.com\/products\/antique-rococo-revival-ruby-glass-gilt-scent-bottle","provider":"Austyn Marie Design","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
