This belonged to Maria Bronte.

From the Treasure Trove: smelling salts bottle. This belonged to Maria Bronte. Apparently it had also “been loved and used” by Anne in her last days

  1. When looking at this beautiful bottle, one can get an insight into the pretty Penzance life Mrs Bronte knew growing up

    1. Yes, indeed. She was used to a different kind of live in pretty Penzence.

  2. I've never seen this before...I didn't know they even had anything of Maria's other than a sampler and some letters...how wonderful, it's absolutely beautiful.

    1. I never saw it before either.

      This message is on the internet page of the Bronte Parsonage so I believe it is true. If I saw it somewhere else it would be hard for me to believe.

      Indeed it is absolutely beautiful.
