Unsigned but undoubtedly early Baccarat bottles that predate the 1936 acid etched labels. The famed cristallerie used paper labels beginning in 1860 until 1936, which often got lost, worn or washed away. The perfume box is in overall very good to excellent antique condition with some general wear commensurate with age and use. The bottles are in good condition, a couple of hardly noticeable flea-bite nicks to the cut edges on the bottles and nicks to the underside of the faceted stoppers. Box measures 4 7/8" x 3 1/4" x 3 3/4" tall. Bottles are 2 15/16" tall x 1 7/16" square.
