In this guide I will show you several examples of vintage perfume bottles all made by the same company. I generally see these mistakenly sold as "Victorian", "antique" and even "Czech".

 

Here are the facts that I was able to uncover:

Approximate age: c1934

Bottle Type: decorative

Origin: USA

Description: Clear, molded glass cologne flacon, bottle has applied gilded (or silvery) metal cage work filigree which is studded with faux turquoise (or other colors) glass cabochon “jewels”. Bottle is finished with a gilded metal screw cap with filigree and matching faux turquoise glass “jewel“. The design of the bottle was filed for patent on April 28, 1934 by Walter R. Leach of Baltimore, Maryland. The bottle design was granted a US Design Patent on June 1934 and assigned the design patent number of 92,542.These bottles were distributed by Irving Rice (Irice), a major importer of perfume bottles who supplied many a department store and dime store with his finds.

Markings: base embossed with Pat D92542

Measurements: 2.5" wide x 4.25" tall x 1.5" deep

Approximate value: $45-$65
