A I. Text
This perfume bottle of Eau de Coty was designed by the famous French glass artist René Lalique.
Lalique began his collaboration with François Coty around 1907-1908. This specific design is representative of their early collaboration, with Lalique adding artistic flair to the presentation of perfumes.
Some details about the design:

Designer: René Lalique (1860–1945), a pioneer of Art Nouveau and Art Deco.

Features: The label is often richly decorated with classical figures, which was characteristic of Lalique's early work for Coty to visually reinforce the scent.

Historical context: Before this collaboration, perfumes were often sold in simple apothecary bottles. Lalique and Coty changed this by making the bottle an integral part of the luxury experience.
