Chinese porcelain scent bottle with Dutch silver cap

Blue and white porcelain scent bottle, produced in China from the 14th to the 18th century to be exported to European countries, then mounted in silver in Holland with the characteristic big hinged cap, full hallmarked.
To be precise, the white is not a proper white but a very pale blue, due to the cobalt oxide used in the production.
