scent bottle? signed Airlie 1973
« on: March 17, 2013, 09:02:27 PM »
Hi All
Just found this little beauty in a charity shop in Ilkley West Yorks. Very nice scent bottle i think, in perfect condition, ( but no sign that it ever had a stopper). It's 4 and a half inches high or 11.5 centimeters if you prefer, part polished prunt and signed Airlie 1973 on the bottom, and has a trailed Z on the front ( Unless Zorro has been stalking the charity shops of Yorkshire :D)
Judging by the posts on here it seems a fairly rare piece of Scottish glassware. Just thought someone might like a look at it.
Regards
Mark

Welcome to the board.

It's John Airlie, whose daughter Shiona does frequent this board at times.
