Description

Reproduction of an ivory essential. It has a tubular shape with circular decoration along its perimeter, it also has a lid, which has a protuberance at the top to be able to pick it up and open the container.

In Rome, in addition to the people, the rooms of the great palaces, the theaters, the clothes, the wine, the banners of the legions, were perfumed when they went to war or when they returned victorious from their conquests. Innumerable perfumes were also used in religious ceremonies as offerings to the gods, at burials, and at family parties, especially weddings. Essencieros had a lid to ensure that the smell of the perfume or essences it contained did not get lost.
