Cobalt Blue Glass Decorative Bottle with Applied Metalwork

This appears to be a small, decorative cobalt blue glass vessel, likely a perfume bottle or a small vase. It features a rich, deep blue color in what looks to be blown glass. The main body of the vessel is adorned with intricate, applied metalwork. This metalwork consists of a textured, possibly hammered or embossed, metallic band with a golden or bronze hue, spiraling diagonally around the lower half of the bottle. Interspersed within this spiral are smaller, lighter-colored, possibly painted or enameled, abstract designs, which are difficult to discern precisely but add to the decorative aspect. There are also small, brass-toned stud or rivet-like embellishments securing the metallic banding. The glass itself on the main body exhibits a patterned texture, possibly a diamond or crosshatch pattern, which catches the light. The neck of the bottle is covered by a cylindrical collar of similar textured metalwork, also in a gold or bronze tone, with several small, spherical projections attached; these could be decorative beads or small metallic elements. A visible mark or emblem resembling a crown or crest with three individual elements beneath it is present on this collar. The top rim of the bottle is plain blue glass, suggesting it may have originally had a stopper, which is not present in the image. The overall craftsmanship suggests a decorative piece, possibly from the late 19th or early 20th century, or a more modern revival piece inspired by antique styles. The condition appears good, with no visible cracks or chips, though the patina on the metalwork suggests some age or intentional antiquing. The quality of the applied metalwork and the distinctive glass color point to a reasonably well-crafted item designed for aesthetic appeal.
