Antique Vintage Perfume Bottles 1940s 1950s

Vintage Glass Perfume Bottles
These vintage perfume bottles, with glass stoppers are now available for sale at the NewOldGlassCompany.

I just can't believe this. This is a must have for vintage perfume bottle collectors. It is truly amazing these lovely items have survived -- an entire collection of  New Old Stock of Antique Perfume Bottles from the 1940's & 50's.  To be exact, these bottles are over 58 years old and "new" as in  never filled perfume bottles from Evyan New York, made in USA over 50 years ago!

I am always amazed at how things can resurface like this. Found by their owner, whose family had a perfumery in New York-New Jersey area, these bottles were acquired untouched, in the original boxes. The good news, is they are now available for sale to the public!  Many people may not have believed this and thought they were reproductions but here is proof positive, just look at the old boxes!

Antique Vases

Antique Vase Etsy Shop ArtNouveauGal
From ArtNouveauGal on Etsy, $395 for this Majolica Vase
I am drawn to antique vases and often wonder their history or value.  If you think about it, the possibilities when collecting them are endless. You have milk glass vases, blown glass vases, ceramic vases, pottery vases and not to mention the whole tin and metal vase concept.  Just think, back in the twenties and thirties, people giving flowers and having fresh flowers in vases that still survive in someone's collection today.  It almost seems almost unimaginable just how many antique vases are out there.

I found this great site AntiquesNArts that has a page all about antique vases.  For collectors, you can take a quick peek and see what's for sale out there.  For sellers, you can do is take a quick look and see the prices that vases are selling for and it just may amaze you.
