Antique French 18k Vermeil .800/1000 Silver Teardrop Perfume Flask, Bottle, in Original Case hare 1810-25 French Empire hand fanLacking only the tiny stopper, this excellent c. 1870 1900 French teardrop perfume flask remains perfectly in its original domed presentation case, not a flaw to note other than stopper. Tiny French boar's head profile is the guarantee for . 800 1000 silver, slightly less than sterling, and as you can see, a generous layering of 18k gold on the silver, 'vermeil' as it's known in France. Hinge and clasp of lid working perfectly, as is it with the case.
