Antique Perfume Bottles Are Treasured Possessions

By: Charlotte Hargreaves

Collecting antique perfume bottles has become much more popular
in recent times especially with the advent of such new and
interesting markets as online auctions.The numbers of varied
types of perfumes is undeniably huge which means that there is a
need to carry at least those many different perfume bottles
similarly. Essentially, these bottles serve to appeal to the
client helping to sell the perfume and thus must be attractive
and sure to catch the eye; consequently, it really should not
surprise anyone that the perfume bottling business is huge and
amongst the innumerable manufacturers of such bottles, the name
of Pochet SA - a French corporation stands out.

Pochet SA Is A Most Celebrated Bottle Maker

If you have ever bought a bottle of Givenchy, Coty, Dior, Yves
Saint Laurent and Calvin Klein or any other equally celebrated
brands of perfume, there is a great chance that the perfume
bottle has been assembled by Pochet which is a corporation that
descended from Verreries du Courval and also Pochet DeRoche that
have very many years of experience in producing glass and
porcelain items. In fact, the first and foremost perfume bottle
that contained designer perfume was commissioned by Empress
Eugenie in the year 1858 and was the task of Verreries du
Courval.

The means of making a perfume bottle changed and during the
1930's they began to be fabricated by machine and major part of
the inspiration for such bottles appeared to come from
Hollywood, while an organization named Lalique that was
subsequently bought by Pochet had an excellent bottle that
contained the 1932 classic fragrance named Je Reviens that on
the whole resembled a skyscraper from New York and came in a
package in a chrome finished box.

Another interesting feature of the perfume bottle is when the
scent has been used and the fragrances are gone, the bottles,
especially those from bygone days are items that are treasured
even further than the scents that they held. In truth, if you
are lucky enough to own an antique perfume bottle, you may well
be the owner of a minor treasure that will fetch a fantastic
price and which is much sought after by other bottle collectors.

So, the next time you go overseas ensure to inspect the numerous
antique shops that may carry an antique perfume bottle for sale.
Nevertheless, that is easier said than done because many of
these bottles have an asking price in thousands of dollars, and
pretty much prior to you purchasing one of these bottles, you
had better not spend on something that is not to your liking,
and if you cannot help but collect these bottles, do so with
those that you find really attractive in that you can take
pleasure from them for further years to come.

You can even find antique perfume bottles in places other than
antique shops, and apt places to look for them include estate
sales or auctions, yard sales, flea markets and also thrift
stores and especially Internet auctions.
