    This bottle is 4 1/2 inches tall. Found it in a box of junk many years ago .
    It has a Dragonfly/ Lilypad scene. I can only guess that it was for perfume. Any intel on this would be appreciated .

      BEAUTIFUL BLUE!!! AND BOTTLE :)

      Well the style is most assuredly art nouveau. Does the metal cling to a magnet? As silver and gold won't respond to a magnet. It is very pretty.

      Beautiful bottle!

      DangerDana said "silver and gold won't respond to a magnet" : neither silvered brass, copper, pewter.... and other non iron alloy metals!

      The "magnet test" only gives an answer: if it is attracted, metal is NOT solid silver or gold.

      Thanks DangerDana and kyratango for your input !!!

      Leave it to you to find THAT in a box of junk! The metal is pewter.

      Thank you Efesgirl ! Glad you could shed a little more light on this bottle . I always wondered if it was imported here . This will get me closer to its orgin. Again Thank You !!

      paulmartin - you're welcome! I live in Europe (Netherlands) so if I happen to find another, you'll hear it.

      I just bought this exact bottle at an Estate sale yesterday. Mine still has the Maker on the bottom. Gold glued oval shaped says: Handcrafted for Silvestri, made in Taiwan R.O.C. Hope this helps.

      I also found this blog about reproductions. (which this is.) http://cleopatrasboudoir.blogspot.com/2009/07/vintage-silvestri-reproduction-perfume.html
      Scrolling down at the bottom, through the pictures of reproduced bottles, is Silvestri and our bottle. Sells for $25.00.
