[QUOTE="Nathan Lindop, post: 344665, member: 5285"]My first antiques love story, I brought these two back together. The first time I’ve brought two items together that are separate. Both from eBay, I purchased the collar for £13 and the crown perfumery smelling salts bottle for £6 or something similar. I have a small collection of smelling salts bottles, so it was a dream come true to have this on my shelf with them Made by Henry Matthews noted silversmith of vanity items. This bottle would have contained some staggeringly powerful smelling salts, a luxury in the first place this sleeve will have been owned by a wealthy individual Also attached is a contempary, most likely a little earlier advertisement for a silver smelling salts case. Ps sorry about the photos I’ve been rushing to photograph a lot of things that have been delivered.
