Glass perfume bottles inspire the imagination of collectors
Posted by Trish@paisley on
Starting in the 19th century, perfume bottles were largely commissioned by perfume manufacturers to house their olfactory wares, the bottles themselves have become as sought after as the fragrances they were designed to hold. Eventually, perfume bottles were sold empty, allowing those who purchased them to fill them with the scent of their choosing.
Perfume bottles, with their elegant curves and light-refracting facets, are subtle reminders of more elegant and luxurious eras. From ancient Egypt to recent history, perfume bottles have played a role in documenting beauty throughout the ages.
Vintage and antique perfume bottles are the perfect way to bring vintage glamour back into your home. Whether you intend to use them, or simply display them along with other glass collectables, they make for a stunning addition to any home.
