Antique Perfume Bottle and Extract Lotus de Noel Lily of the Valley, 30 ml, Art Deco Crystal Flacon, France circa 1920

An antique French perfume extract bottle containing "Lily of the Valley" by the prestigious house Lotus de Noel, dating to circa 1920. This rare piece is presented in its original heavy, faceted, step-cut crystal flacon, retaining a significant portion of its original amber-colored fragrance.

Founded in Nice, France, in the early 20th century, the Lotus de Noel Parfumerie (The Lotus de Noel Works) was highly regarded for creating luxurious fragrances using natural floral essences sourced from the world-famous Grasse region. This bottle represents the refined craftsmanship of early French Art Deco perfumerie, complete with a French patent (Brevete SGDG) cork under a bakelite cap.
