This review is from: Perfume Bottles for Purse and Dresser: From Czechoslovakia, 1920s-1930s (Schiffer Books) (Hardcover)
A beautiful book to look at (the photos are amazingly detailed) & facinating to read, even if you are not a collector. This book will transport you to another (more elegant) era.
