Colgate Vision de Fleurs bottle, empty Art Nouveau perfume bottle, brass label

Description

Here is an empty bottle that held Vision de Fleurs, a fragrance by Colgate. Vision de Fleurs was introduced in 1915 when Colgate was still creating health and beauty products other than the toothpaste that we know it for today.
The bottle has beautiful Art Nouveau styling. It is made of glass with an embossed brass label. The stopper has only a couple of tiny "fleabite" chips on the sides, as seen in the 7th and 9th photos. On the back of the bottle, there is a line near the shoulder of the bottle that appears to be a scratch on the glass, but when I touched it with my fingernail, it felt perfectly smooth. I realized that the line was a manufacturing flaw that is either on the inside of the bottle or embedded within the glass. This thin line can be seen in the 10th photo.
The bottle is 3 and 3/8ths inches tall. It is 3 inches wide at the shoulders. The thickness from front to back is about 1 inch.
If you want to purchase items from two or more of my listings and have them sent to the same mailing address, please request an invoice from me before your make your payment so that I can recalculate your total cost.  I am usually able to combine shipping for a cost reduction.  To request the invoice, please put your desired items in your eBay shopping cart and then click on the link in your cart that says “Request total.”
I do my best to provide accurate, honest descriptions of every item, including any imperfections I find.  All items are sold as-is, and returns are not accepted unless I have made an error in the listing or neglected to disclose a significant item flaw. Therefore, if you have any questions not answered by the description or photos, please contact me before you bid or buy.
If an item still has the original box, I always include the box in the photo(s).  All items are stored in a dimly lit, arid, smoke-free, temperature-controlled storage unit.  Items may be briefly exposed to light when I photograph them for eBay, but they are returned to storage immediately afterward.
