Featured Atomizer

Czech?

 

Pretty!

 

I could be way off base but my first thought was Glass Eye Studio.

 

Mine too - just has their look - theirs is usually marked yes?

 

Great minds think alike!
I've had some pieces that just had a label on them and/or their studio card

 

Aha - I have 2 pieces by them - both marked. Good to know some aren't.

 

This is a fairly recent bottle & likely came from China or Taiwan.

 

I didn't chime in, was just waiting to see if someone could ID. @bercrystal, I know you know perfumes. What is the give-a-way on this piece? The quality/style of the glass? The atomizer? Just curious.

 

A small suggestion...I would pour some alcohol into the base and pump out the perfume residue. The oils in perfume will thicken over time, rendering the tubing useless.

 

It is mostly the generic styling of the bottle & the hardware is a newer style also. I am not exactly sure where the hardware is being produced, but this website shows the variety of bottles that are out there.

FYI - Obviously their definition of the word antique is anything over 100 days old.

I also have looked at literally thousands of antique/vintage perfume bottles over the last 30 years & have come to recognize the shapes/styles of the hardware that were produced by the various companies.

The plastic tubing is one of the first give away because plastic tubing was not used until the after late 1940's. Before that the draw tubes were made of metal & than glass.

BTW I am not saying it is not a nice bottle & someone might really like to have it on their vanity. It is just that this was produced in the last 10 to 20 years, maybe less. I also did not see this shape in Glass Eye's catalogs, but I did not look at every one. They do however also use the same hardware as is shown in the other website.

I thought the hardware might be at least part of the clue. Thanks for the detailed info!

 

You are very welcome!!!

 

thanks Peggy, that is great information

 

You are quite welcome!!

I am just glad I can be useful once in a while around here.

 

Re the lack of signature: it could well be Glass Eye; twice a year or more Glass Eye has a big outdoor sale, and many of their artists sell lots of stuff; almost never marked as Glass Eye, but sometimes marked with the signature of the individual artist.
I've bought several nice items at good prices there. They'll often be open to negotiation as the sale winds down also.

 

I saw a very pretty Glass Eye bowl in a local consignment store this morning. It only had a foil label on the side.

 

I did not know that some of their pieces are unsigned. Learn something new every day here on the forum.

The few catalogs I looked at show mainly 2 styles of atomizers & they were kind of short & squatty.
