Up for auction we have a beautiful early antique
Colegate & Co Violet Toilet Water Powder Bottle
with the original cork and a lovely Art Nuveau lable embossed with light violet flowers
The bottle is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks
The lovely lable which reads VIOLET TOILET WATER is also in excellent, untorn condition
although it looks to be a bit faded at the bottom where it reads:
COLEGATE & CO. PERFUMERS NEW YORK
Those same letters are also raised embossed on the very bottom of the glass bottle
The cork is softly worn off a little on one edge, which is depicted in the photos
The bottle measures 6 3/8 inches tall
The cork prodrudes another 3/8 inches beyond that,
bringing the whole thing up to 6 3/4 inches tall
It is 2 1/2 inches wide x 1 1/2 inch deep
Thanks for looking and good luck bidding on this lovely, collectible bottle!
