Cork & Metal Crown Top 1898 Perfume Style Bottle Lenzo ~ Eyeglass Lens Wash This magnificent little bottle stands 3 ¾ inches tall, 2 inches wide at the base.. It is thick glass, shaped kind of like the Eiffel tower. The labels are completely intact! The top is cast metal with a cork underside. It looks like and ornate crown with highly detailed features in the metal. I call it a perfume bottle, because that's what it was designed for. It was used by a Jeweler ~ Optician to hold an eyeglass cleaning solution. The label says it all.  See Photo Below This fancy bottle has seamed sides and a ground neck top. The underside of bottom has cast into the glass, "LENZ O 2". The cork is dry, but intact. The cork crown metal lid is ornately designed with extravagant minute details. This bottle is in Perfect Condition. It has both a front label and a neck label. The label says, "For Eye Glasses ~ Lenzo ~ Apply a few drops on lenses then polish. Prepared for ~ WM. G. SCHEEFER ~ Jeweler – Optician ~ Successor to M. M. Munn & Co. Saranac Lake N.Y.". Then at the bottom of the label it says By the Lenzo Co. Phila. The neck label just says LENZO. The label's background is a gilded surface. It is flooded evenly with actual gold gilded ink, giving it that sparkling glitter. Gilded ink is formulated using genuine gold flake, a prominent technique for marketing upscale products from that era with radiance. Gilded printing has rarely been done since the 1930's. It radiates elegance.  Illinois residents pay sales tax. We're happy to combine shipments where practical to save you $$$.
