Featured 2 Beautiful Blue French Opaline Glass Scent Bottles - Palais Royal - Ormolu

Hi everybody!

I just wanted to share these beautiful scent bottles I received today.

*Blue Opaline Glass
*Perfume/Scent Bottles
*French
*Palais Royal
*19th Century
*Ormolu
*Hinged
*Including original stoppers (numbered 20 & 21)

Both bottles have the same bronze mount and decorations.

Differences:
1) One bottle is a little larger.
2) The smallest bottle has a little deeper blue color.
3) The large bottle has a miniature painting of a building,
which is unknown to me. (haven't searched for it yet)
4) The smaller bottle has a miniature painting of "Arc de Triomf"

I'd say these are approximately 1850-1870 (?)


Thank for watching

Beautiful. Love 'em!!!!

I believe the building may be the Maison Carree in Nimes, France, constructed in the Year 2 by the Romans.

 

La Madeleine in Paris.

Debora

 

Or that.

 

On the bottle I see trees around the building. Therefore I believe it must be "La Madelaine" then.. Thank you very much!!

 

I love the colour on these, they are beautiful

 

Stunning, a favorite color of mine in glass. Enjoy them!

 

Possibly part of a travel set
Lovely.

 

LOVE that color too!!!!!

 

That blue color is perfect indeed. But, I have something even more special I believe.
I think I haven't placed it here yet. It's an pink opaline egg. Ca. 1850.

This glass is very beautiful, and has a real milky glow to it.
(Maybe I'll place it as a full post later)

Does anybody know why I can't upload multiple pictures at once no more?
I now have to upload picture by picture.

 

Yes, I often see them in boxes. Either opaline glass caskets, or wooden boxes.

 

Love that egg. That is precious.

 

Wow, that egg is fantastic

 

It is! And it's quite big too
