A nice set of Bohemian Czech hand painted with some gilding blue cased glass scent bottles. I have seen these kind described at "Victorian". I was looking opalescent blue glass up online, and the Bristol glass company has several items in this color. So I was wondering if this could possibly be Bristol instead of Bohemian. I ventured to say the latter of the two by the style of the painted design. If any CW friends have further information, I would be honored to hear from you.
Definitely in my opinion Bohemian and I think maybe by Harrach...here is one very similar to yours...but I think your blue ones are much!!!..more attractive.... Love them....:-)

Hi Simiata. These are lovely, i love the blue. I've come close a couple of times to buying something similar but in green. There's a very distinctive look to bohemian glass like this, odd symmetrical shapes in some kind of opaque glass often with gold trim or decoration. Its so distinct from other glass i wondered if it has a name or could be by a particular glass house?
Thank you vintagefran for the nice comment, inky suggested Harrach maybe. I have not had much time to research them, but will eventually. You get the chance to purchase some, do! They are gorgeous!
