This antique French perfume bottle is made from blue and white glass with a brass mounting, which is fitted with two chains that attach to a finger ring.
Originally, this tiny bottle would have been filled with smelling salts, with the ring worn around the pinky, making sure it was on hand all the time and preventing it from getting lost.
