First is Spanish recycled glass oil bottle, I'll lay odds. Probably came in an olive wood holder.
I now want a washing up liquid bottle in a dress.
Thank you - I'd say a 1950s ish box. That's real cotton wool as well, rather than the later synthetics.
I suspect they're reading that high because the back setting is solid in the silver. Could be pink tourmaline or something, or a synthetic. Or...
I suspect it was made by one of the many factories in Empoli, Italy. Love the colour. Powder bowl.
There's rings on it, so I think it may have been varnished and then lost its finish. Also, those holes are little round ones, more suited to metal...

Uneeda was Nabisco not Nestles.
Don't get me started on artists and botany.
The box is at least 1950s into 60s from the outside. (Dad had a packaging company!) Can you get me a photo of its innards?
Have a look at the leaf shape? Heart shaped, so not a campanula.

Clasp looks to be acanthus, which is typically late Victorian/Edwardian.
I need to see the logo and old label please. I used to collect old tins, so I'm not bad on dating them. The base construction and inside is a clue...
There is that!
Bottom and interior photos are needed, please. ;) That Paisley decoration went on for decades. Foil wrapped chocs are a bit later.
Those holes don't look to be the kind you'd affix a back splash to - and I'd have also expected the wood to show some evidence of its presence. I...
I agree earlier than Deco. Early 20th to my eye.
There is that, too. ;)
Agreed! I reckon a decorator price is a couple of hundred at most.
Separate names with a comma.
