1930’s Czech Crystal Perfume Bottle

Big crystal perfume bottle made in the early 20th Century in Czechoslovakia.

Shown in Whitmyer’s Bedroom and Bathroom Glassware of the Depression Years. The pattern is known as ‘Beaded Medallion’. The large oval medallion on the stopper works like a magnifying glass. The bottle has 6 panels, each with a protruding oval medallion. The base is trimmed with ‘cannon balls’.

Beautiful thick crystal perfume bottle with lots of sharp corners and edges. No chips. No discoloring. The bottle and stopper necks are ground to fit. At the end tip of the stopper’s ground insert, where it fits into the bottle’s neck, are very tiny chiggers which are common and can’t be seen unless looked for. The elaborate stopper has sharp beveled scallop edges in perfect condition.It measures 7.25″ tall and weighs 1 lb. Made of heavy thick colorless lead crystal. Pressed in a 3-part mold.

Stunning on your vanity…and very usable. Because of the durable nature of this beautiful bottle (which was once part of a vanity set) matching bottles, jars and trays can still be found.
