💎 A beautifully sculpted piece of late Art Deco elegance, this 1938 fluted glass perfume bottle is crowned with a sterling silver screw-top hallmarked by Birmingham maker William Aitken (WAI). Its tall octagonal body, crisp optical fluting and gleaming silver cap create a striking interplay of light and geometry — a refined choice for displaying your signature scent or elevating a dressing-table vignette
Item is in average vintage/used condition. Sterling lid features a small original ‘J.B.’ monogram, consistent with pieces of this era. The bottom of the glass jar has a chip. There are two small dents on the sterling silver lid. Please see all of the photos. 💎
⌛ History Behind The Piece ⌛
Crafted in 1938 and assayed in Birmingham, this bottle reflects the peak of British Art Deco luxury, when silver-mounted vanity pieces were produced for elite travel sets and fine dressing rooms. William Aitken, whose WAI punch appears on the cap, was known for meticulously engineered toiletry fittings — a hallmark of the period’s blend of precision craftsmanship and quiet opulence.
