Meet "Monique" of "Girl in a Bottle" assemblage series, a Casino de Paris showgirl of the 1920's. Her mad stage costume features a topless view with large petal shaped flowing skirt and matching floral hoop, in colors of green, blues and pinks. This one of a kind bottle from around 1920 offers a nice clear view. Backside has an original vintage 1920's Eau de Roses Paris label. The bottle is covered in dangling costume pearls and beads, has a framed floral ribbon, with a vintage shoe slipper with flowers, and covered in a variety of organic dyed mosses. All my bottles are professionally cleaned and created in a smoke free home. Free, prompt and secure shipping within the United States. My apologies for no International shipping. Thank you kindly.
___________________________________________

I have for years collected rare and beautiful early French tinted real photo postcards of Parisian show girls, bathing beauties, models, gypsys and perhaps ladies of the evening. I have taken these rare and lovely postcards to the finest printing company in Cincinnati and had them reproduced on equivalent fine papers and sized for my bottles. Loving and admiring these colorful ladies, my joy in creating these bottles is to imagine them performing or showing off in small fantasy clubs, casinos or beaches, thinking of them as classy little peep shows. I have great respect for these women who in the 1920's were courageous, bold and unshrinking in earning their way in life, whatever their circumstances.

In America, women were slowly moving from the Victorian era, wearing clothes from their neck to their ankles, struggling to gain the vote in 1920. But this was a decade of changing attitudes reflecting fashion, often starting in Paris, where hemlines rose from their ankles to their thighs. And to this decade and these entertaining women, I hope to honor them all with beauty, creativity and bringing them back to light. Thank you kindly, Cheryl
