An exceptional antique sterling silver perfume bottle modelled as a pheasant, featuring exquisite hand-chased feather detailing and a long, graceful tail. The bird’s head is finely crafted and serves as a screw-top stopper, revealing the hollow interior designed to hold perfume or scented oils.

Fully hallmarked for English sterling silver, this rare example of novelty silver dates from the late 19th to early 20th century, when whimsical animal-shaped scent bottles were highly fashionable among the British elite. The lifelike design, from the intricately detailed plumage to the natural stance, makes it both a functional perfume vessel and a striking decorative piece.

A wonderful find for silver collectors, perfume bottle enthusiasts, and lovers of unique antique décor.
