pity I can't encourage someone else to join in and share the Kew visits  -  marvellous place, and you do get to meet such a nice class of person - Class 3 actually

[Paul S.]

perhaps someone was thinking of the Chrysler Building in New York when they designed this bottle.

Reason for absence - CLASS 4 again!!                Trust you can read the details.                think this brings the 'Look Ups'  up-to-date.

Thank you, Paul.

I think your link to the shape of the Chrysler Building in New York (completed in 1930) is perfectly plausible. In fact, there is a similar (but not identical) glass bottle in a Chrysler Building design online at

and a very ornate glass and jewelled filigree perfume bottle in similar style at

Current GMB RD lookups now complete, so will ask the moderators to remove them from the list.
