Perfume/Cologne - 8/9/2005 11:30:34 AM    Ye Olde Prospector   Posts: 614 Joined: 1/23/2005 From: Bath, Maine Status: offline Just wondered if anyone has any info on this little bottle. It is 3 1/2 in tall, BIM, with tooled lip. Embossing is hard to make out but looks like "PPCERTOSNIFERENZE" around the Monogram. Probably not from US. Any info would be appreciated.

So we have TOSNI = France and FIRENZE = Florence, Italy. Are you sure the 1st letters are PPCER ? < Message edited by tncgal -- 8/11/2005 3:41:30 PM > _____________________________ ~ tncgal ~ (in reply to Ye Olde Prospector) Post #: 7

It could be PIO with the IO blended together or possibly even FIO or even RIO for that matter. I am looking at them with a binocular scope but the embossing is just not that clear. First letter could be an F as there is a tiny break if it is a P. Thanks for your help don't know if any of the suggestions would make sence or not. It is still a nice miniature in my collection.
