Chatelaine scent bottle in blue glass, decorated with the three-fires technique in gold with touches of white and purple

Chatelaine scent bottle in blue glass, decorated with the three-fires technique in gold with touches of white and purple. Hinged gilt metal cap with inner glass stopper. Suspension chain with ring. The “turbant” hinged cap is typical of tge scent bottles of this period made in Murano. Also the painted decor is more similare to the Venetian three fires glass bottles, rather than the Bohemian one, so I believe this is a scent bottle made in Italy.
