I was searching an area and discovered this perfume pendant. It has a Masonic Stamp on it and tried some research but could not locate anything regarding masons making this sort of thing. the stamps are a masonic symbol, an 800, and another that looks like a shield and horn. and on the other side are the initials and name of "E.D.F Dresden" any help would be greatly appreciated. perfume2.jpg perfume3.jpg perfume4.jpg

The picture with the hallmarks does not zoom in, it would help to make this one as large as possible. Although, it doesn't look British, so someone else could help.

What a beautiful Bottle! Very very cool Find!

E.D.F. could potentially mean EAU DE FRAICHE and Dresden probably stands for the city Dresden in germany! Im german but couldnt find anything else about it right now. Will let you know if i should find out who the producer was. bye GA

The Hallmark is German, Hanover, 1900's..nice find :thumbsup:

Make that 20th Century, the Maker is Wilhem Muller, and the city is Berlin, not Hanover as I first thought.:thumbsup:

the one all the way to the right... it doesnt look like any of wilhems marks, looks like a masonic symbol.. not an x
That is the Makers Mark, W over M.

I forgot to say that I think it's a Victorian Vinaigrette Scent Bottle bit like this one. :thumbsup:
