EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing a beautifully arranged lavender bouquet encased within a delicate glass bottle. The lavender flowers, sourced from the renowned Mitcham Lavender Fields, were carefully handpicked at their prime and meticulously preserved for the creation of this timeless memento. The Mitcham Lavender Fields, located in South London, were celebrated for their vibrant blooms and intoxicating fragrance during the late 1800s. The fields were a popular destination for visitors seeking to enjoy the picturesque scenery and breathe in the soothing aroma of the lavender plants. This bottle, prepared by Curtis and Company, Pharmaceutical Chemists, based on Baker Street in London, is a testament to the artisanal craftsmanship of the time. The company, known for their expertise in the field of pharmaceuticals and toiletries, took great care in preserving the natural beauty of the lavender bouquet, ensuring that every detail was captured in the final product. The intricately designed bottle, with its elegant label and ornate stopper, adds to the overall charm and allure of the bouquet. The use of glass, a common material for perfume bottles during the 1890s, further enhances the value and sophistication of this precious keepsake. This photograph, taken around 1895, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the simple pleasure of enjoying the beauty of nature was enough to bring joy and serenity. The lavender bouquet, preserved in this beautiful bottle, serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of natural fragrances and the art of preserving their beauty for generations to come.
