Vintage Blue Spritzer Bottle from Geneva, Switzerland - $75
This is a rare Spritzer bottle, commonly called “Siphon bottles” in Europe. It is made of very thick and heavy beveled glass, with all the Swiss writing on the bottle acid etched. This is an old bottle, possibly from the mid 1950’s, which originated from Geneva, Switzerland.
These bottles were used in homes as well in bistros and restaurant. They are found in various forms: cylindrical, ovoid, pyramidal, framed octagonal, etc. The glass can be plain, twisted, beveled or beaded with honeycombs offered in various colors (clear, red, blue, green are common).
This bottle has no cracks, chips or repairs and has the original chrome dispenser (top/tap). This could be a great collector’s item.
I have indicated the particulars and all the writing on the bottle and dispenser below.
