The trousers are in a yellow ground with a gilt circle and dot pattern. It also has a cross around her neck and a yellow and gilt belt. Marked to the base with a blue painted J.P. to the base. Dates to c1840 to 1860.

This is a more uncommon size and is a proper scent bottle rather than the much bigger sizes which are more commonly seen.

CONDITION:   There are no chips cracks or restoration. It does not have the original stopper.
