A Mennecy silver-mounted combined etui or bodkin case and scent bottle, c.1750, possibly emblematic of Summer, modelled as a classical lady holding a basket of fruit, her head lifting to reveal the scent bottle, the lower half formed of a tapering rectangle painted with flowers, 12.7cm.

This form was also adopted at Charles Gouyn's factory in London.
