This round, glass perfume flask has a silver plated cap, which is engraved with a floral pattern. It is fitted with a ring holder on two chains, which means you can hold it in your hand without fearing you'll lose it! Legend has it that ladies wore time flasks like these containing smelling salts to revive them when they felt faint from wearing tight, laced-up corsets.
