Description

18th/19th century 9ct gold /sterling inlaid Tortoise Shell Traveling perfume<br>bottle holder. 2.5" x 2.5" x 1.25" overall, great and way above average, the<br>type of thing the elite of the period would have owned. Illegible hallmarks to<br>bottles lids, I believe gilt sterling, inside frame also hallmarked.
