signed ink/perfume bottle, can't find anything..
« on: March 25, 2015, 03:30:14 PM »
I picked this up in a lot of glass that had quite a few gems.  There are a few that are signed, but I find nothing on the inner-web to help.  Then I found this forum, great stuff in here!

The first one is very nice, and has a glass top/dabber in it. The bottle is 3" wide,  3 3/4" tall.  The dabber is clear glass and measures 4 1/4" long with the top bulb being roughly 1/2" tapering down to 1/4".  It adds about 1 1/4" total when inserted in the bottle.  The bottle has a very nice swirled color pattern and is signed, "McKenzie 1995".  At least that's what I make of the signature, please see the pictures..

The second is a pair of paperweights.  Both are the same size, 3 1/2".  One is signed "#444 C. D'aquila" the other is signed "#269 C. D".  I think it's the same, just one is more completely signed.  The partial signed one also appears to have a rub over the # making it difficult to read...? I'll attach pictures..
Thanks for the help.
