here are more pieces from my collection. the two purple bottles are purfume bottles. these are incredibly rare... im not sure if another pair even exists. the two bottles have clear hobnail stoppers (not shown in the pics) the color of them is a very dark purple with lots of opalescence. in pic 4 you can see that the color truly is purple. this color is called violet opalescent. here is a link to a similar pair along with a matching powder jar....they want nearly $3000 for their set.
