Collectible Perfume Atomiser Appraisal

Vintage Blue Glass Perfume Atomiser with Fabric Bulb

This item is a vintage-style perfume atomiser featuring a fluted clear blue glass bottle and a fabric-covered bulb. The bottle is molded with a distinctive multi-faceted or fluted design, giving it a starburst or flower-petal-like shape from an aerial perspective. The glass is a delicate, translucent light blue color, suggesting it could be pressed glass, possibly from the mid-20th century Art Deco or Art Nouveau revival periods. The top of the bottle is fitted with a polished brass or brass-toned metal mechanism that includes a slender, ovoid plunger. Attached to this mechanism is a flexible tube leading to a fabric-covered squeezable bulb. The bulb is a light blue-grey color, consistent with the bottle, and appears to be made from a tightly woven or knitted textile, possibly silk or rayon, showing a slight texture and gentle wear. The metal components show some patina consistent with age, indicating they are not newly manufactured. No specific maker's marks or signatures are visible in the provided image. The overall condition appears good with no obvious chips or cracks in the glass, though the fabric on the bulb might have some minor discoloration or fraying typical of its age. The craftsmanship appears to be of decent quality, exhibiting a decorative yet functional design meant for a dressing table.
