Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

This clear glass perfume bottle from the 1940s exhibits a mid-20th century English country house design. The rectangular body features sharp corners, a ground glass neck, and an original circular paper label showing a green and black illustration of a figure and lettering for Potter & Moore's Mitcham Lavender London. Atop sits a faceted geometric glass stopper shaped with multiple diamond-cut facets that catch the light. The transparent glass reveals the smooth surfaces and clean internal angles of the container. Measuring 18 cm high, 7 cm wide, and 5.5 cm deep, the piece sits neatly on a bathroom counter or dressing table top as a decorative holder or collector's display item. The vintage vessel brings a touch of mid-century vanity styling to contemporary interiors.

FAQs

During the mid-20th century, commercial perfumeries produced moulded glass bottles featuring branded paper labels and ground-glass stoppers for retail distribution. These vessels were designed both for functional scent storage and as decorative additions to domestic dressing tables.

Bottles from this era were predominantly press-moulded or blow-moulded from clear glass, featuring ground-glass necks matched to custom stoppers to form an airtight seal. Paper labels were lithograph-printed and adhered to the exterior face.

Authentic mid-century bottles typically display hand-ground stopper joints, period-appropriate typography on paper labels, and seam lines characteristic of mid-century glass moulding techniques.

These small glass vessels are suitable for arrangement on mirrored vanity trays, bathroom shelving, or bedside tables alongside contemporary dressing accessories to add geometric variation and texture.

Clean the exterior glass gently using a dry soft cloth, avoiding contact between liquids and paper labels to prevent staining or peeling. Ground glass stoppers should be kept clean and dry to prevent binding within the neck.
