This pale blue frosted glass perfume bottle dates from the Art Nouveau period around 1911 and follows a classic French design aesthetic. The round body displays vertical ribs running down the exterior, while the top holds a flat lid decorated with relief butterflies. A faint moulded mark spells Lalique down the side of the bottle. The base is convex so it rocks on its surface, and a few tiny nicks appear along the vertical ribs. Measuring 6 cm high and 7.5 cm wide, the vessel sits compactly on a surface. Placed on a bedside table in a bedroom, this piece serves as a decorative accessory or a container for scents. The opalescent glass finish catches ambient light, highlighting the pale blue tones and the detailed butterfly stopper. The textured surface provides tactile interest, contrasting the smooth flat lid against the ribbed body. Displayed alone or among other vintage glass pieces, the bottle adds period charm to a dressing area or display cabinet.

FAQs

Art Nouveau scent bottles are characterised by organic forms, nature-inspired motifs, and innovative glassmaking techniques such as frosted finishes and opalescence popularized by designers like Rene Lalique.

These pieces were typically cast using pressed or mould-blown glass techniques, featuring specific chemical formulations containing arsenic or phosphates to create translucent, light-diffusing optical effects.

Authentic pieces generally feature hand-ground stoppers tailored to the specific bottle neck, fine relief moulding, and period-correct wheel-cut or moulded script signatures such as R. Lalique.

Display the bottle on a mirrored vanity tray, marble bedside table, or illuminated shelving unit where natural light can highlight the translucency and colour variations of the glass.

Clean gently using lukewarm water and mild liquid soap, avoiding abrasive clothes or hot water that could cause thermal shock, and store away from direct heat sources.
