    Atomizer perfume bottles from the Victorian period and later used a metal siphon tube. Determining the age sometimes can be done by the siphon tube. The older bottles used a metal tube, during the 20's and 30's they started to switch to a glass and modern bottles switched to plastic. The makers mark I have tried to find and have failed. So if anyone know who this mark belongs too that would be awesome.

      I didn't find your mark, but I did find similar triangles from Germany where the maker's initials flanked the triangle just like yours, but the central letter inside the triangle wasn't related to the name. In a couple of cases it was the first letter in the region the piece was made, but I don't know if that's what it was signifying. Anyway, going on that theory, you should search for the maker with initials "JT"?
      I didn't have any luck!

      Well thank you for looking maryh1956. I appreciate the effort. I will try some more research and see if I can come up with anything with your lead. :)
