QANADIL Miniature Egyptian Perfume Bottles | Mouth-Blown in Cairo | MISHKAH
Qanadil — the small lamps. Miniature bottles blown at the flame, each with a ground-glass stopper and its own logic: stacked colour spheres, a ribbon of gold spun around green, a clear sunburst disc. Collect them singly or stand them in rows; they are made to be many.
Each holds a few milliliters of attar or oil, or stands empty as sculpture. Mouth-blown borosilicate glass with 24K gold. Made in Cairo by Mishkah's atelier, working since 1985.
- Height approx. 10-12 cm depending on design
