Rare Antique Sterling Perfume Flask from Denmark
I purchased this online from an antique store in Denmark. At the time they stated it was German, and the 835 Is standard European grade sterling. 2 3/4” wide and it has a beautiful design on the front and a crown screw on lid. The lid is not sterling, just the flask is sterling.The 835 silver mark on an item indicates that it is made of an alloy containing 83.5% pure silver. This standard was commonly used in Germany, Austria, and Belgium, and is still used in some European countries like the Netherlands and Portugal.
