Hi,

I have bought a small heart shaped perfume bottle with a rococo design on both sides. The stopper has the mark 925 and the initials C W A can anybody out there tell me anything about these initials.

Thanks

It is sometimes difficult or impossible to identify items when images are available. The task is many times harder with only a description. If you are able to provide us with an image of both the bottle and the mark we can make an educated guess or even identify it.

Thanks for responding so quickly.

I have only purchased the item over the internet tonight so only have the sellers photos available at this point in time. They only show the bottle, no close up of the marks.

I will figure out tomorrow how to upload the pics I have and would appreciate your opinion.

Thanks

Hi,

Here are the pictures... I haven't actually got the item in my possession yet, having only just bought it over the web, so i am afraid i haven't got a close up of the marks. The marks are on the stopper 925 and initials C W A. These are makers marks rather than an owners inscription.

Can anybody give me any more info?

Thanks
