Antiquities Couture Heirloom Two Tone Vinaigrette Pendant Locket Necklace 32" A Victorian-inspired essential oil diffuser for today's woman A 17th century woman just discovers a dishonorable event, falls to her side, and reaches for her vinaigrette necklace as she fans herself wildly in disillusion. A typical scene in the victorian era was not just an emotional exaggeration but having your vinaigrette at your side was believed to be a valuable tool to help restore emotions back to a sensible state. Vinaigrette has nothing to do with salad dressing, but it does have something to do with vinegar. Commonly used as reviving vapors for someone that has fainted or to mask unpleasant odors. A reviving sponge would be soaked in either vinegar or essential oil and many believed the scent could also prevent disease.
