Maria Cooper Finds
Pair of Derby Silver Co. Quadruple-Plate Repoussé Dresser Bottles with Stoppers, c. 1890
$185.00$145.00
A romantic pair of Victorian dresser/cologne bottles by the Derby Silver Company (Derby, Connecticut, active 1873–1898, later absorbed into International Silver). Each cut-glass bottle is sheathed in quadruple-plate repoussé sleeves of scrolling ferns and florals, crowned with swirl-fluted dome caps over the original glass stoppers.
At 7½" tall, they're perfect vanity, dresser, or bathroom-shelf romance — true pairs from this era are far less common than singles.
