AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Incredible spray atomizer signed Marcel Franck with the "Escale" mechanism mounted on an unmarked Baccarat crystal bottle, as it predates 1936.
The atomizer still works perfectly and is stamped Marcel FRANCK; note a sign of corrosion on the inner threaded rod. The bottle has suffered no damage, cracks, or breakage.
Marcel FRANCK
In 1907 Marcel succeeds his father Léopold Franck, founder of the brand in 1882. He collaborates with the great glassmakers of the time (Baccarat and Saint Louis) and the finest glass artists (Lalique, Gallé, Argy-Rousseau, etc.). He transforms the atomizer into a true work of art. The brand gains international renown.
Shortly before his death, the company is sold and disappears at the end of the 1990s, but remains a very active market for collectors.
1912 - Marcel Franck develops the first travel atomizer.
1926 - Creation of the "Le Kid" in homage to Chaplin, the first pocket atomizer.
1926 - Creation of the "Fizz" mount.
1935 - Creation of the "Escale" mount.
Happy bidding to all
As with all my items put up for auction on this site, this marvel has undergone no cleaning (just dusting) and no modification since purchase, so it will require a good cleaning to restore its former panache.
Carefully examine the photos which are part of the description. Any damage not mentioned in the text but visible in the photos is considered as described.
No shipments outside the EU. If you are outside the European Union you may bid on one of my lots; however, no claims will be possible in case of problems during transport. Given the new import/export regulations to the USA, there will be no shipping to that country.
Careful professional shipping, with signature and insurance.
