Topic: Can't find anything on Google. Suspect are Australian. HELP please.

These extremely well made perfumes have nice gold leaf higlights(cased), and the compression of the neck into the base bulb is extremely even.  The stopper is most unusual too, in that there is a hollow down the centre and the base of the stopper is relatively thin - light comes through easily.  Not only that it shows signs of being ground as if a further "something" was intended to fit in there - but neither had a "something".

Lesli Justin is the name - but no Google reference seems to be available.  I do suspect they are Australian but they are so well made I am surprised I have not come across the name previously, so maybe they come from elsewhere 0 an Op-shop buy.

Lesley Justin blew glass at Inglewood New Zealand in the 1980s.  She married Chuck Simpson before returning to Australia, and also called herself Indiah Simpson, but may have used her Justin surname in Oz as well.  I have a number of her pieces, but these look very nice.  I have several mentions of the Simpsons on my blog http://newzealandglass.blogspot.com

 :chky: :chky: :chky:  Wow! This is why I love this board so much.  Thank you Stuart.

I thought I had Chuck Simpson item in my collection - appears not.

Strange way to spell Lesley is it not.
