Vintage 1930s Guerlain “Eau de Cologne du Coq” Bee Bottle & Working Perfume Atomizer – France
In excellent condition – No reserve.
An exquisite and highly collectible vintage 1930s vanity set from the historic French perfume house Guerlain, comprising an iconic glass Eau de Cologne du Coq bottle and a matching mechanical perfume atomizer.
The beautiful clear glass bottle features the distinctive embossed bee and garland decoration, a characteristic design associated with Guerlain's legendary Flacon aux Abeilles. It retains its original decorative paper label depicting a rooster (coq), together with its matching spherical glass stopper.
The accompanying fluted metal atomizer features elegant silver- and gold-tone detailing, a curved brass spray nozzle and its original black woven fabric squeeze bulb with decorative tassel. The atomizer has been tested and is fully functional.
A particularly attractive collector's set, combining the heritage of one of France's most prestigious perfume houses with the elegance of traditional vintage vanity accessories.
Historical Context
Guerlain, founded in Paris in 1828, became one of the most influential names in French perfumery. Eau de Cologne du Coq was created in 1894 by Aimé Guerlain. The decorative bottle and original rooster label reflect the visual identity and refined presentation of French perfumery during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
