<p>[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 10236294, member: 88"]c.1968 3 pc. DeVilbiss Empoli / Italian Art Glass vanity set. It took me 15 1/2 years to collect all 3 pieces. I bought the powder jar off eBay back in 2009. I was shocked when I saw the atomizer listed a few weeks ago. When it arrived a few days later I lamented that the odds of finding the matching dauber bottle was going to be very tough. Imagine my surprise when looking through my saved searches a few days later it showed up & it was the same seller that had sold me the atomizer. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie56" alt=":jawdrop:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie45" alt=":facepalm:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /><img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie51" alt=":hilarious:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>My photos do not do this set justice.
