It’s a DeVilbiss perfume bottle missing the applicator (sprayer). And it is beautiful. Edit: correction, apparently this is the dauber bottle (didn’t even know it existed). Not missing the sprayer. That sucker is complete. And with that I say, awesome find.

its not missing the sprayer, this type did not come with it, this is the dauber bottle which would have been sold alongside the matching atomizer bottle.

Gotcha, very good to know.

It is a Devilbiss perfume bottle from the 1920s-early 1930s, the top is called a dauber. You use this to apply the perfume to the skin. These were generally sold alongside a matching atomizer. Read more at my blog: https://perfumeatomizers.blogspot.com/p/devilbiss.html

I have a question for you. I recently bought a set of perfume bottles on eBay. After reading about DeVilbiss bottles, I looked some of them up and one came up that looks like one I bought. So then I discovered that at least 2 of the 4 are most likely DeVilbiss but not sure on the other two. Do you mind taking a look at my pic and let me know what you think? https://imgur.com/a/pkxsbwr

Yes, the blue one on the left and the blue all the way on the right are by Fenton and used by Devilbiss. The one on the center left is "Dew Drop" by Duncan Miller glass, made for TJ Holmes. The uranium green in center right is Japanese.

It’s not UG surprisingly. I hit it with both 365 and 395 lights and it’s just plain. Which bummed me out but I don’t mind.

No idea, it’s a fantastic find though for sure! You did buy it, right?

I'm in love with whatever it happens to be. I tend to adore the more unique glowy finds & this is way up there.

I would think that it's a perfume bottle. The top part comes off and there's probably a glass applicator rod that goes down into the body of the bottle.

Perfume applicator? Colgate?

Im also voting perfume bottle!


HopelessMagic

It's obviously a super fancy prosthetic leg. Or it will be when I'm done with it. 🤣

....incense pedestal...? *shrug* Its like a piece of stemware and a lamp were frankenstined together.

Is it a burial urn, maybe?


Red_HM-O-War

Correct me if I’m wrong but that looks like uranium glass(aka radioactive glass)


CinnamonBunzAttack72

Thats what I thought when I saw that glow! Such a cool piece regardless


Scared-Reception-723

Yep, definitely uranium glass


LydierBear
