    Description

    This is a pair of what I believe are large perfume bottles that date to the Depression years. There are no tops/stopers/daubers, and no wear inside the opening as you would expect from a glass stopper. They could also be used as vases for single stem flower, like a hydrangea, or as candle holders.
    The centerpiece of each is twisted and resembles Fostoria's Colony pattern, but the foot is Art Deco in design. These appear to have been made with a 3-piece mold. Very unusual and interesting. There is considerable wear on the feet consistent with age and display.
    One of the pieces was broken and repaired under the first of the 3 wafers. I've shown a closeup of this area in the last photo. It's not immediately noticeable (I completely missed it at first), and can be positioned toward the back when displayed.
    There is also some residue on the interior of the hollow stem. Please see photos.
    Each stands about 7 3/4" tall with a 3 3/4" diameter at the widest point, and 3 1/2" foot.
