Description: Please note that for Ebay Live Auction only bids at or above $230 will be successful and meet our reserve. Outstanding and extremely rare 1930's "Hollywood Star" perfume bottle in its ORIGINAL version, with clear stopper and uranium/vaseline glass bottle. We've seen this perfume bottle being offered by other source, but unlike their "marriage" piece with un-proportionally small bottle in clear glass, we offer this perfume bottle in it's ORIGINAL - design matching version - as you can see design is same on the stopper and the bottle. We discovered both original 1930's molds (bottle and stopper) back in 1996. After questioning why no pieces currently exist from this mold, we were told that 60 years ago, the production of this piece was not feasible secondary to a high rate of inconsistencies. Apparently 9 out of every 10 stoppers for this piece were warped following the first stage of the manufacturing process making further finishing steps impossible. Due to this high rate of loss, the maker decided not to market any bottles with this "Hollywood Star" stopper. It is for this reason that you will not find a single listing for this item in any publications on the subject. Although high percentage failure rate still exists now 60 years later, we have taken on the challenge of producing a limited number of these stoppers despite the tremendous expense. Therefore this item cannot be considered a reissue or reproduction. This is technically an ORIGINAL piece made today with the same painstaking steps endured by craftsman of the 1930's. Mint condition, dimension : 7-1/2"H x 4"W. Please note that only 20 pcs of this rare color were made, we have only few left. For Ebay Live Auctions photos sizes are automatically reduced.
