Located in New York, NY
INDULGE IN A MUSEUM QUALITY PERFUME BOTTLE VINAIGRETTE DECORATED WITH HAND PAINTED NEOCLASSICAL ENAMEL IMAGES OF MERMEN, CENTAUR, GODDESS MAIDENS, AND FISH IN A BUCOLIC PASTORAL SCENE OF EXTRAORDINARY BEAUTY. THE PERFUME IS SILVER GILT AND DATES TO CIRCA 1850-1900.
The enamel images on the perfume are as fine and wonderful as we have ever seen. The classical subject matter is absolutely stunning. On one side is a goddess maiden rising out of the water on the back of a merman with another merman rising out of the water and holding her robes. There is a fish in the water and the background includes a cloud filled sky, with a tower and trees. On the other side, the goddess maiden is climbing onto the back of the magnificent centaur who kneels by the side of a stream with a temple in the background. The cap is further adorned with elegant geometric flower motif designs in enamel. The classic images from mythology are absolutely exquisite and the work of a master enamel artisan of the highest quality. The perfume bottle is silver gilt. The perfume bottle is most likely Swiss or Austrian. It dates the 19th Century.
