Vintage Chambord Liqueur Miniature Bottle

This is a vintage miniature glass bottle of Chambord Liqueur Royale de France. The vessel features a distinctive globose or orbicular shape, characteristic of the brand's Royal Heritage marketing. It is constructed from dark, opaque glass that contains a deep purple-black liquid. A notable feature is the ornate, gold-toned plastic or metallic crown-shaped cap, which displays a beaded texture and a fleur-de-lis motif, signaling the brand's association with 17th-century French royalty. Around the middle of the orb is a black horizontal band with cream-colored sans-serif lettering that reads 'CHAMBORD LIQUEUR DE FRANCE'. A paper tax stamp in red and white tones is affixed over the neck and under the crown, suggesting a mid-to-late 20th-century production date, likely between the 1970s and 1990s. The condition appears fair to good; the labels show some yellowing and slight peeling at the edges, consistent with age. The liquid level remains high, though there is a visible air gap at the neck. The crown cap shows minor oxidation or tarnish in the crevices of the molding. This miniature represents a collectible piece of alcohol advertising and package design from the late 20th century.
