    Hi folks!

    I bought 2 boxes of commercial perfume bottles last night. I've id'ed a few like the small Chanel No 5 bottles which most people recognize. I even id'ed a Lalique perfume bottle. But that was totally by accident.

    Nothing else has labels, so I'm struggling to id them.

    Are there any websites that might help me? Anyone have any sources?

    We can help. Post some photographs. In small groups perhaps.

    Here's another resource. Only in Spanish and Catalan but, if you go to "Perfume" and "Comercial," you'll find bottle examples by major makers.

    This is all I have left to ID. The links provided helped a lot. Thanks!

    Pardon the dirty glass. I haven't cleaned anything yet. And I need to take photos with more color in the background since the bottles have no color.

    The first picture- The bottle on the left is large and may be a barber's bottle or something similar. I have a pair.

    The bottle on the right is cut and polished. The stopper is a knot. I'm not sure if it's a commercial perfume bottle or just a vanity bottle.

    The second picture- I have 3 of the bottle on the left. If they didn't have the ribbed stoppers, I wouldn't have thought much of them. The bottle on the right looks familiar but I can't find one in my searches. There are 2. One has the frosted stopper. The other has a clear stopper.

    I'm going to add pictures of those I've id'ed in another post.

    These bottles I have id'ed.

    The first is by Lalique and held Tzigane by Cordray.

    The second picture has a bottle that was Ciro in Baccarat style. They had some bottles by Baccarat but mine isn't marked. The bottle on the right is CHANTREY PROMENADE.

    The last picture has Ciro New Horizons on the left. Ciro Danger is in the middle. And the bottle on the right is another Lalique for Worth.

    You can see how much the links helped. Thanks again!

    I would suggest you just wipe down any obvious dirt & dust from the outside of the bottles. If there is any perfume reidue in any of them just let it be. A majority of the commercial bottle collectors prefer the bottles that retain their original "juice". :happy:

    I don't have time to look through my books right now, but will give it a shot later this evening if no one has ID'd the bottles.

    The Worth bottle contained Je Reviens.

    Those are really challenging. Some quite obscure. What era do you think they are?

    What's in them isn't perfume residue. It looks almost waxy.

    The first Lalique is 30's and a few others were that old. But the remainder don't look terribly old. I'd guess 60's or 70's.

    I don't really recognize any of those (with an exception or two) at a glance. Too bad labels have been removed. Suspect that effects value.

    I thought it had an aztec feel to it and was searching using Aztec and Maya. I found it using one of the links.
