<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SYNCHRONCITY, post: 2114716, member: 6283&quot;]Gee Thanks! <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Most of the bottles I have purchased and added to my collection have all cost me in the $5-$30 range. I also look for ones for under $10 that I can replace the missing bulbs and tubes on them to get them for a bargain. I don&#039;t generally pay anything over those prices as I hunt for sleepers. I am on a strict budget. Believe it or not I got this one for under $50! It was a great score for me as I could definitely not afford the retail price these go for. </p><p><br /></p><p>I think the box is called a Boulle Work box. Yes, it does have three crystal bottles (Baccarat)? w/ gold painted star motifs on them. The third bottle on the right has the original perfume still in it! It smells heavenly.</p><p><br /></p><p>When I removed the interior tray it was lined with an original label and mentioned that was located across the street from the Napoleon III Circus (Cirque Napoléon) which was built in 1852 and the name was changed to Cirque d&#039;hiver in 1870. So this means the box was made anywhere between 1852-1870. The cool part is the ad says Coiffeur Perfumeur. I believe that means that the place that sold it was a hairdresser and a perfume dealer. It is cool to find out hairdressers back then also sold perfume too.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here are some pics:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]250709[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]250710[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]250711[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]250712[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]250713[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
