This perfume atomizer is a gorgeous piece of cut glass.
I had this piece appraised by GArnone of Cleopatra's Boudoir, her initial thought was vaseline glass, however I tested it with a blacklight and it does not fluoresce so we agree that it is likely flashed green glass. I was finally able to see the logo on the inside rim clearly and it reads T and M with a representation of the mushroom atomizer in the center of the letters. The bottle weighs 15.5 ounces. She mentions the condition issues in her appraisal listed below. Antique Etched Flashed / Vaseline Glass Travel Perfume Atomizer Approximate age: 1910-1920 Bottle Type: decorative Origin: France or Bohemia Description: Transparent Etched Vaseline glass perfume flacon, etched Iris pattern along sides. Thick, heavy cut crystal bottle. Mounting is silver plated brass and is chased with rococo scrolling and floral patterns. This type of mounting is known as a piston pump atomizer and was used for travel as the mechanism is leak proof. To open, depress the middle and turn a quarter turn clockwise, to close reverse the motion. This style originally appeared around 1900 and was popular up until the 1940s. They were common place in France and the French hardware companies would import the bottles from Czechoslovakia and mount them with their own hardware. Box Measurements: 5 ½" tall.
