Topic: Peter Tysoe perfume bottle (UK)

That is lovely, John!

John may just have helped me to unravel a mystery.  I earlier posted a Decanter by Tom Levkovski in blue bubbled glass as similar to his bubbled glass.  I also have this attenuated bottle which is doubly signed - Tom Levkovski's initials and an unknown signature.  I think it is quite like your bottle down to the bubbles, form and colour.    I now wonder if it is Peter's or perhaps he might know who made it - wild guess Cedar Prest.

The signature you show is definitely not Peter's (although I'm not sure you alluded to that). All of the attenuated bottles made by Peter that I have seen have the turned over rim, but with certain similarities it is possible that there is a design influence. I'll email Peter and ask.

David I am fairly sure it was made at Monash University,Caulfield.

Cleared one up for me, i wonderd if it had a stopper, the other two perfumes i think are by Peter (i know one is as David has asked him direct) with hallmarked silver.

Sorry for not getting back sooner - been away at Newark.

Peter got back promptly and stated that:

It's not one of mine - though obviously made in a similar technique. Tom Levkovski is unknown to me and I haven't any idea if he was influenced by anything of mine - especially as I only produced this type of glass in UK.

Hope that helps clear things up (or not as the case may be!)
