Heart Shaped w/ Flowers Nina Ricci Perfume Bottle "Coeur-Joie" Designed by Lalique

Collectibles : Bottles : Commercial Perfume Bottles

 

Etched on the bottom "Bottle Made by Lalique France", it is a larger size, heart shaped perfume bottle with flowers in the frosted glass. Made for Nina Ricci and designed by Lalique, it held and still holds the perfume "Coeur-Joie" which came out in 1946. Unfortunately the stopper is stuck. Obviously, there is about one-third of the perfume remaining. The wire is still round the neck of the bottle. I don't know that it has ever been removed around from the stopper. It is in excellent condition with exception to the stuck stopper. The last 3 of the 4 I have had of these have all had stuck stoppers. The stopper is all glass and they do have a tendency to stick. That is why you always find plastic around the end of the stopper since the late 1960's. This keeps the stopper from getting stuck.

This is not the tallest size in the bottle but I believe the 2nd tallest at 4 3/4" tall. (Besides the Factice) It is a gorgeous crystal perfume bottle. There is no chips or cracks. Simply beautiful.

Still a lovely perfume bottle!

The last picture is just to show size comparison. This one is in the back of the other two bottles.
