168 S. Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst sehr gutes Exemplar. - Inhalt: La Belle Epoque -- Leopold and Marcel Franck -- Baccarat -- Galle and L'Ecole de Nancy -- Daum -- De Vilbiss -- T.J.

Rouard -- Saint-Louis' Designers -- The Garniture de Toilette. - The elegance of feminity can not be reflected more than in a fragile and beautifully designed perfume bottle, unless the spray of the perfume itself is sensed - and that is the special job of the perfume atomizer. It delivers the elusive scents for all to experience. This lavishly color-illustrated book showcases a fantastic collection of perfume atomizers against a factual historical text. It pays tribute to the artistic talents of the bottle designers, especially in France and Bohemia, where art and life co-mingled in the early, elegant decades of the twentieth century. Color posters of fantastic perfume advertisements with atomizers are reproduced, and they bring a true atmosphere of the idealized taste of the day - tempting and ephemeral. The 232 color photographs of atomizers show clearly that in them the designers achieved elegance in tangible form. Over 160 period catalogue illustrations not only help to document the associated atomizers, but they also display a chronology of products from the Belle Epoque and Art Deco eras which are so highly collected today.

Synopsis

Perfume atomizers are avidly collected today. In this exquisite, color-illustrated new book, hundreds of atomizers are displayed and identified. A well-documented text, descriptive captions and over 400 color photographs demonstrate the diverse and beautiful variety of bottles and dispensers which make up the atomizer world. Art Nouveau, Art Deco and Moderne styles reflect the changing tastes of the public. Well-known designers and manufacturers, including Rene Lalique, Marcel Franck, Baccarat, St. Louis, and Bohemian glassmakers, contributed to this by-gone and ultra-feminine apparatus.
