Rare 30ml Dralle Perfume Bottle "Lotion Yrsa" with an Art Nouveau Label, Circa 1915

This is an exceptional collector's item from the early history of perfumery, from the traditional house of Dralle in Hamburg. The Lotion Yrsa bottle offered here is likely from the period between 1910 and 1920 and holds approximately 30ml.

The most remarkable feature is the detailed Art Nouveau label depicting a seated lady. It has been preserved in astonishingly good condition and is one of the rarest known variations.

On the back of the glass bottle, a hummingbird with the word "Colibri" is embossed in relief, a typical trademark that Dralle used for its high-quality bottles during this era. The screw cap is made of metal. The bottle itself is empty, but its artistic design and the exceptionally well-preserved decoration alone make it a sought-after collector's item.

The Dralle perfume factory, founded in the 19th century in Hamburg, was one of the most famous German houses of its time and was internationally successful. With artistic bottles, precise labels, and imaginative fragrance compositions, Dralle created perfumes that are today valued primarily for their historical significance and rarity.

This bottle is not only a testament to German perfume history but also a museum-quality object that embodies the elegance and decorative spirit of Art Nouveau in a rare state of purity.

The item shows signs of use consistent with its age. Due to its age, no guarantee can be given for the quality of the fragrance. The perfume is offered without a display.
