Vintage Sterling Silver Perfume Vial Necklace, Engraved Teardrop Scent Bottle, Screw Cap and Dabber, Italian Chain
Description
A dressing-table ritual, reduced to a silver drop and worn close to the heart.
This vintage perfume vial necklace pairs a rounded teardrop-shaped vessel with delicate foliate engraving and dotted decorative lines. Its reflective curves narrow into a slim neck beneath a domed screw cap and shaped suspension bail. Unscrewed, the cap reveals a slender integral dabber, a pleasing detail of the miniature scent-bottle form.
The pendant is identified by the seller as marked 925, with a small stamp photographed on the dabber. The accompanying fine curb-link chain is marked 925 and Italy, as confirmed by the seller, and fastens with a spring-ring clasp. These markings support describing both components as sterling silver. The Italy marking applies to the chain; it does not establish that the pendant was made in Italy or that the two were originally sold together.

Close-ups show fine scratches and small surface marks across the reflective body, with darker tarnish around the engraving, neck, cap, and bail. Localised darker areas and rubbing are visible around the lower edge and seams. The chain and clasp also show small marks and uneven toning. It is not offered as unused or pristine.
The cap and dabber are photographed removed from the vessel. Capacity, internal cleanliness, seal condition, and leak resistance have not been established, so this is not a promise that it is ready to carry perfume. No scent or liquid contents are included. Chain length and pendant measurements are not inferred from the photographs.
A miniature vanity relic for a keeper drawn to silver vessels, secret compartments, and the quiet theatre of old dressing tables. Carefully nestled in its treasure coffin, a vault relic from Vaen’kai Vault.
