Rare Vintage 1940s "Forever Amber" Oversized 15" Perfume Factice Store Display . Rare, 15-inch vintage perfume factice (store display bottle) manufactured in the 1940s by Kathryn, Inc. (Chicago) for their signature "Forever Amber" fragrance line. Named after Kathleen Winsor's scandalous 1944 historical romance novel, this giant bottle was never sold to the public. It was distributed exclusively to select department stores as a high-end countertop and window marketing prop.
Design & Features: * **Stunning Art Deco Silhouette:** Features elegant, stylized spiral-molded glass flutes twisting beautifully down the hourglass body. * **Original Oversized Stopper:** Comes with its original, massive clear glass stopper sculpted into a flame, leaf, or flower bud design. * **Ground Glass Seal:** Features the authentic unpolished, frosted ground-glass neck and stopper plug designed to create an airtight seal for display fluid. Authentic to production, the bottom is smooth and features no embossed text (originally identified via a paper foil label on the front body, which has worn off over the decades). ### Dimensions: * **Total Height (with Stopper):** 15 inches * **Bottle Height (without Stopper):** 12 inches.
This 80-year-old commercial store prop is in beautiful vintage condition. The glass retains excellent clarity. There are no cracks or major structural damage to the body.
