Condition:

Excellent

Long Description:

I have an odd piece that was found in an abandoned house the company I work for is doing testing in before it is set to be demolished. Its a wooden panel with flowers carved in it and the middle slides out and it has a carved owl on one end that has hinges and folds out/up. That about as good as I can explain it.. What in the world is it?

Vintage Odd Looking Silver/Metal Perfume Bottle

Perfume Bottles

Condition:

Good

Long Description:

I acquired this perfume bottle from an estate auction in Houston Texas.

There are no markings on it anywhere.

Everything unscrews and comes apart.

The main base, dauber, and drip tray are a silver color as well as 3 of the flowers. The other 3 flowers appear to be brass. The silver flowers have red paint in the centers.

I am guessing maybe this is Alpaca Silver? as it cleaned up nicely with Wrights Silver Polish.

The dauber has some of what appears to be Indian writing on both sides---different on each side.

I have no idea the value of this!! HELP!!

Long Description:

It is thin for an armoire, tall and heavy/sturdy. The inside has old painted logos of some kind like it was made from old wood boxes/crates?? It could be really old or it could be like a 60's or 70's thing... not sure what I've got but I would love some info. Thanks.
