The clear glass bottle has a tall body with gently rounded shoulders and a long narrow neck. The front is richly embossed with an ornate floral and leafy festoon above the raised lettering “ED. PINAUD,” with a circular inset panel beneath and “PARIS” along the lower portion. The underside carries additional ornamental script reading “Pinaud,” along with wording around the perimeter identifying the bottle as property of H. & C. Klotz & Co.

Ed. Pinaud was the historic French fragrance and grooming house associated with perfumes, toilet waters, colognes and hair-care preparations. Given the unusually large size of this example, we are describing it more broadly as a toiletry bottle rather than assigning it to a specific fragrance or preparation.

A wonderful decorative piece with strong graphic presence and beautiful architectural embossing. Particularly well suited to an antique vanity collection, apothecary display, bathroom shelving, dressing room, or collected grouping of early advertising and toiletry bottles.

Vintage condition with age-appropriate surface wear and signs of previous use. Please review photographs carefully as they form part of the condition description. See less
