I think it's Fenton Aqua Coinspot. Mid 1930's, but I'm guessing. It's a nice piece.
great item it is blue opalescent coin dot or coin spot as some collectors call it.
This piece does not open, it seems to be stuck on ? can it be opened ? or will it break ?
What is it worth ?
assuming the top is metal and not painted, I've seen recommendations to use acetone or nail polish remover to help clean and dislodge perfume stoppers; may work as well in this instance too.
what is the value of this piece ?
Thank you !
It appears that Fenton did make this perfume atomizer for DeVilbiss. There is one currently listed on eBay in French Opalescent (white) that has references mentioned. It will give you a vague idea of value.
