Rare Vintage Schiaparelli Shocking Perfume Bottle: Figural Tailor's Dummy, Glass Dome & Box

Rare 1940s iconic Shocking perfume bottle. The fragrance was first launched in 1937, and the bottle was designed by Leonor Fini, the bottle’s shape modelled after a dressmaker’s dummy that is based on the body of Mae West. This perfume bottle measures 7.5 cm in height and is housed within its glass dome. The glass dome and base measure 10 cm in height and this fits within the hinged original shocking pink and gold box. The bottle has glass flowers and foliage and tape measure draped around the shoulders. The perfume bottle has the gilt cord around the neck, but the globular stopper is frozen and I don't want to force it. There is a small amount of perfume liquid remaining in the bottle and even with the stopper in place you can still smell the wonderful fragrance. It is offered in good condition with I believe, some of the glass flowers missing and some light edge wear to the card box. Since this scent bottle still contains some perfume liquid, I will be unable to ship internationally so this listing is for the UK only.
