Are there any markings on the hardware? Maybe around the collar?
My first guess would be that this is likely a DeVilbiss perfume. DeVilbiss would have retailed it ... added the hardware, but another company would likely have made the glass portion. Sometimes DeVilbiss uses an acid stamp on the top or underside of the foot.
As for the missing squeeze bulb, that's not as big a deal as you might think. There are several sources where you can find replacements.
This is so stunning I love it !
There are places in the US that sell replacement bulks etc...
twentiethc - thank you so much for your most friendly and helpful comment!!
Unfortunately it's unmarked. I also thought it looks similar to DeVilbiss, but seems there are others similar as well, like Volupte or Pyramid?
I would love to find a replacement for the squeeze bulb... I suppose gold-toned would be most suitable!
ozmarty - many thanks!! I will definetily start searching for a replacement!!
I did a google search for " replacement atomiser bulbs " and found sever sites including on ebay
ozmarty - thank you so much for the help!!
Since english is not my native language, I googled using the wrong words...and didn't find anything... But now I know what to write!! Thanks again!!
The small dot pattern in the panes is a classic Czechoslovakian design seen on many bottles from the mid 1920's the shape of the glass suggests 1925 when similar bottles were used by Volupte and DeVilbiss neither made the hardware that tops this bottle. so It is very likely entirely Czech in origin. As for the missing squeeze ball and hose simply shop eBay for any cheap atomizer bottle with the color you like and switch out the parts then discard the low value bottle. Yours is worth at least $250 to $300
Czechofan - Wow, thank you, thank you!!! For your most helpful and kind comment!! :) I'm very happy for this information..! Yes finding a suitable replacement for the sqeeze bulb is my next mission... thinking about which length of the hose it should be..!
all of the replacement ball/cord parts you find will be too long. The ball should not drape to the bottom of the bottle but nestle into the area of the stem just above the base.
When you find what you like it will come with gold end caps on the hose. simply measure the desired length with the caps included. mark the space where you want to cut it to shorten the hose, place a small amount of superglue around the braid so it will not unravel then cut it off and replace the gold end cap to cover the glue spot.
Czechofan - thank you so so much for your excellent advise!!! I'll follow your instructions!! :) Looking forward to see the bottle complete with hose and squeezebulb...!!
