Belt chatelaine scent bottle with beautiful enamels
Enamelled silver scent bottle with hand painted scenes: a girl on the front of the belt hook; a courting couple on the bottle; a cherub, a little boy with a cockerel and a little girl with a kitten on the roll seal. The back of the scent bottle is in engraved silver. All the rich working of the metal is played on the alternation of silver, red gold and gilded bronze, all decorated with fine engravings. The suspension chain is marked as well as the belt clip, but the marks are very small and, for now, not deciphered. This scent bottle seems to tell a life story.
