An EXQUISITELY BEAUTIFUL original antique mold blown bottle.   NOTE that this hexagon shaped bottle has six incised/debossed pictures of Nymphs ** decorating each of its six sides.  This bottle was most likely a Victorian-era dresser bottle, a bottle that was filled with perfume from a large bulk sized commercial perfume bottle, then set out on a woman's dresser for decoration and use.  As mentioned, it was made of frosted or satin glass, an expensive technique to give a vessel an ornate sheen to it.  Then too there is the black amethyst or dark purple color.  This antique bottle has been exposed to a light source to enrich the purple color that would naturally occur if exposed to the ultra violet rays of the sun.   The purple color really accentuates the debossed Nymphs so that you can make them out in great detail!  With a clear glass object, you are looking through it, and the embossing on the glass reflect what ever patterns and colors are in the background.   Yet with this deep purple color, you are looking, not through the clear glass embossing but right AT the embossing, which accentuates it and makes every detail stand out / jump right out at you.   With few exceptions, only clear glass from before 1915 will turn sun-colored-amethyst.   Not only does this deep purple/amethyst color make it a great looking bottle, but it also authenticates it as being truly antique!  This is such an incredibly beautiful bottle and has so much going for it that it almost seems to good to be true, check it out!   ** Angelic nude women-
