PERFUME BOTTLE FROM 12-PC BLUE ENAMEL DRESSER SET
Color: Blue, silver
A perfume bottle a) with stopper b), part of a 12-piece blue enamel dresser set, ca. 1920s. The bell-shaped cut-glass bottle has a mouth of 2" diameter with a 1" opening. At the neck are indentations in the glass as part of the design, which also features a flower, with frosted glass petals, and leaf design in a band around the center; a row of circular indentations along the bottom outside section and a 16-petaled flower on the underside. The top part of the stopper is of blue enamel with a radial-line design emanating from a center point and a sterling silver rim. The top is connected to a sterling silver neck, which is attached to a pointed section of glass. No maker's mark or other identifying features are on the object, though other pieces of the set have "F & B" engraved on them. Other than some black and yellow residue on the bottom of the inside and a few scratches on the bottom of the glass container and some tarnishing on the underside of the stopper top, the artifact is in good condition.
