This exquisite antique Baccarat crystal perfume bottle is a stunning example of early 20th-century French artistry, featuring the highly collectible Rose Tiente pattern in the "Rosaces Multiples" pinwheel swirl design. Standing at a substantial and elegant 6.5 inches tall with the stopper inserted, the piece is crafted in a breathtaking molded crystal that transitions seamlessly from a rich amber at the base to a deep, dramatic ruby red at the neck, showcasing incredible clarity and brilliance throughout the body.
A significant highlight for serious collectors is that this bottle retains its original, custom-fitted swirl stopper, verified by matching factory-etched numbers on both the underside of the bottle base and the lower plug of the stopper shank.
Buyers familiar with antique French glass will note that this piece does not bear an etched "Baccarat" signature. This is historically correct for the era, as Baccarat did not begin acid-etching their logo directly onto crystal until 1936. Prior to that year, authentication is found in the signature cataloged mold designs, the distinct color gradient, and the custom hand-etched assembly numbers, while the original paper factory labels have expectedly worn away over the last century.
The body of the bottle is entirely free from exterior cracks or notable scratches, catching the light beautifully from every angle. The ground glass shank of the stopper shows two minor chips from age and gentle historic use, though these are completely hidden from view when the stopper is resting inside the neck. There is also a mild, faint vintage water film on the very bottom interior of the base, consistent with its age, while the rest of the bottle remains beautifully clear, vibrant, and ready for prominent display on a vanity or curation shelf.
An enchanting secret awaits the collector under ultraviolet light, as both the molded crystal bottle and its matching original stopper come alive with a stunning, vibrant pinkish-orange fluorescence. This mesmerizing peachy glow is a fascinating characteristic of authentic antique Baccarat Rose Tiente formulations, where selenium and cadmium compounds were traditionally used to achieve that fiery, multi-toned cranberry gradient. It adds an incredible layer of historical mystique and visual magic to an already magnificent piece, making it a true standout under a cabinet display light.
Matching Piece Available:
For collectors looking to curate a complete dresser display, a gorgeous, matching 6-inch signed Baccarat Rose Tiente footed vanity dish or tazza is also available in the shop, listed separately.
