I am a newbie to this website and this is my first post. I am seeking information about a Crown Perfumery bottle given to me by my mother many years ago (see photos attached). Staff at Crown Perfumery (now Clive Christian) and a lady called Barbara W. Miller have informed me that my bottle dates from 1921 and whilst they have seen similar glass bottles before, they have never seen one complete with its labels. They consider it rare for that reason. The bottle is undamaged but there is a small tear to the label around its neck. I would be interested in confirming its rarity and possible value. All feedback gratefully received.

That's a very nice bottle! Generally speaking anything from that era with a label will be fairly rare since not many will have survived. I really don't know about value on these though, perfumes don't tend to be that highly collectible but these Crown bottles are unusually aesthetically pleasing so they're always good sellers.

CanadianBottles, thanks for your comments. I thought that it might be rare because of its labels but did not expect the parent company not to have seen such labelling before. I therefore wondered if any of the collectors on this site might have had information about the bottle. I will continue to seek out information about it.
