This tiny (3,5 cm diameter) scent bottle was bought on a Czech auction site,so I guess it's Czech.It attracted my attention because it was described as a glass bottle but I couldn't check this until I get it. I realized it's made of a kind of plastic,maybe celuloid.
It's quite interesting with its creased surface what adds some character to it and it still smells!
beautiful

And SEAN for the nice comment !
It really looks glass doesn't it. Lovely whatever the material.
It doesn't sound like glass.It makes mute (?) sound,doesn't "ring" and a top of the neck ,under the metal collar,is soft.
Thanks Karen for your input and the love :)
I love this Ivonne! The colors are fantastic, and the dimples... WoW!
Thank you Rick for the love and the comment and also thanks Elisabethan for the love :)
Beautiful little bottle!
I'm very surprised it could be plastic!
Perfume would have damaged it...
The soft part under collar may be some old glue?
Did you feel the outside under your tooth, feel it against your cheek for cold feeling,or taste it with your tongue?
(Tasting is my trick, lol)
See this one, I encountered several of these at flea markets, they were blown glass indeed!

Hi,Kyra!I've done all the tests you'd suggested :the sound under the teeth is different than previously - it's vibrant.It's also cold against my cheek .I can't describe precisely the feeling when tasting with my tongue _ tasteless,smooth,glazed ...
Well,yet made of glass !And I didn't take under consideration that perfume would be harmful for plastic.
Fantastic set of tests!You should patent this!
But jokes aside ,Thank you so much for your helpful input.Kyra!I'm so greatful :-)
And thanks for the link.Now all is clear!Thanks again for your help and for the love

Ha, Ivonne! So many people considered me as a fool while tasting pieces, lol!
