Museum-quality relic, Chypre fragrance essence by Schimmel & Co, Leipzig, 500g originally sealed, 1914 to 1915

A museum-quality unique piece from the golden age of European fragrance culture: This original 500-gram large bottle contains the highly concentrated fragrance base "Chypre extra" by the world-renowned manufacturer Schimmel & Co. in Leipzig. This historical object dates back to the years around 1914 – 1915 and represents a fascinating piece of industrial and cosmetic history. The dark brown light-protective glass bottle carries its original paper label with batch number 4196-15B and a listing of international branches from New York to Milan, Berlin, Vienna-Liesing, etc. The neck of the bottle is pristine and sealed with the original paper coat-of-arms seal by Schimmel & Co. The glass is encased in its original brown corrugated cardboard wrapping with authentic patina and storage wear from the past century.

The bottle is in an extraordinarily authentic, untouched state of preservation containing the dark essence (age-related evaporation visible). A top-class exhibition piece for perfume museums, pharmacy historians, memorabilia collectors, as well as for exclusive display in specialty retail. Dimensions: approximately 21 cm; age-appropriate signs of wear; due to its age, no guarantee can be given regarding the fragrance quality.
