    A dainty little Israeli scent bottle, 925 silver with turquoise glass cabochons. Two loops to hang it from a necklace.
    Total height: 4.5 cm / 1.77".

    @komokwa , or other Hebrew readers, could you translate what is written on the bottom please?:kiss:

    Thank you for looking.:)

    No Hebrew for me, but from experience with Israeli silver, can tell you the first word is 'ISRAEL'...

    Oh, that is wonderful inh, thank you.:kiss: It looks pretty like that, just hanging loosely on those garland (swag?) chains. That style makes it a bit older than I initially thought, it looks more mid-century.

    Now to prise the lid off...;) It is stuck, and is currently soaking in lighter fluid. There is already a bit of movement.

    I managed to get the lid off, and surprise! It was used for kohl! Kohl in the screw thread was one of the reasons it got stuck. There is also kohl on the applicator and some black particles fell out.
    Some small bottles were dual purpose, either perfume or cosmetic. And since this was made in the Yemenite style, dual purpose makes sense.
    So it will join my kohl bottle collection.:happy:
