Atomiser

Domestic equipment

Perfumizer

The atomiser was the must have item to apply perfume and might have been a luxury item in a location such as Ravensthorpe. This atomiser was owned by Amy Dasborough who once managed the produce store in Ravensthorpe, with her daughter Estelle. Amy and her husband Sidney farmed in the region between 1928 and 1960. Carol Davis, Amy’s granddaughter donated this atomiser, as well as a collection of household objects and personal memorabilia.
