The Perfume Bottle
My empty perfume bottles
each one a brilliant masterpiece
Mouth blown and hand treated
Ornate colorful glass
or sparkling crystal
Exotic fairy tale beauties
luxurious and decorative objects
When the sun shines, spots of light
dance in the room with a wide range of red,
orange, yellow, green, blue and purple
Collecting perfume bottles
has become a fascinating hobby
Some date back to the ancient Egyptians,
Romans and Greeks
on 18th and 19th centuries
Always on the hunt for antique
perfume bottles
Sniffing the corks
Even though they are empty
they still have some scent
