    Sergio bought this perfume bottle to Dorita Ferrari a few months ago and when I saw it I thought it was a new one perhaps from AVON or something similar, he paid a few dolars less than 10. I was very pleased when I found it is an old Saint Lambert item from around 1900.
    It is part of a vanity set, you can see it on a good web sit https://www.hogelandshoeve.be/index451.html.
    In this page it is affirmed that “For most of the 19th century the factory had been famous for elaborately cut crystal which graced the stately homes of Europe, hours of craftsmanship were applied to geometrical cuts and hand-engraved images, a style culminating in 1894 with the tour de force 'Vase of Nine Provinces' ('Vase des neuf Provinces', in the Curtius Museum, Liege). Industrial production of diverse other glass products, stemware and pressed glass, encouraged a rapid expansion. This interesting flask is surely from this period since from 1900 to 1934, VSL designers experimented with art-nouveau and -deco designs (such as cameo etched glass in the style of Nancy, and hand-painted decors that echoed Legras, often designed by Leon Ledru), but had limited success.
    I love the acqua color and the that you cannot notice the scar of the mold and the glass is very heavy. The stopper has the same design of fruits and leaves of the body.
