A Châtelaine (From French- Lady of the Castle) in its Original Form is a Belt Hook Worn by the Lady of the Castle, from which the Keys of the Castle were Suspended.

It was a Form of Jewellery that had its Origins in Practical Use.

Through Time Châtelaines Came to Support Several Chains from which Accessories Such as Scent Bottles were Suspended  as Women’s Clothing were Designed with No Pockets. 

The Wide Belts that were in Fashion were Suitable to Support Châtelaine Hooks and they began to Hang More and Varied Household Tools from their Belts to have them Handy at all Times. 

This Chatelaine with its Beautiful Agate Perfume Bottle was useful for Keeping a Little Cologne Handy.
