RARE antique Roger & Gallet Sweet Pea perfume bottle — early 1900s / Edwardian eraOffered here is an exceptionally difficult-to-find antique Roger & Gallet Paris “Sweet Pea” perfume bottle, believed to date to the early 20th century, approximately the 1910s era.Roger & Gallet is the historic French fragrance house founded in Paris in 1862 and is highly collected for its early perfume bottles, labels, presentation pieces, and fragrances.What makes this particular example especially interesting is the Sweet Pea fragrance identification. During research for this bottle, I was unable to locate another identical Roger & Gallet Sweet Pea bottle example online, making the surviving bottle and its markings particularly interesting for collectors and further research.Historical documentationPeriod newspaper research confirms that Roger & Gallet Sweet Pea Perfume was being commercially sold by at least 1915.One of the historical advertisements pictured in this listing is from September 8, 1915 and specifically lists:“Roger & Gallet’s Sweet Pea Perfume, the ounce — $1.00.”An additional period newspaper advertisement from June 26, 1913 documents Roger & Gallet Eau de Toilette being sold during this same early-20th-century period.These historical newspaper images are included in the listing photographs for research/reference purposes only. They are not physical items included with the purchase.Bottle detailsThis is an original antique empty perfume bottle and is being sold as a collectible display piece.The bottle retains its period identifying features/markings, including the Roger & Gallet / Sweet Pea identification, surviving decorative elements/medallion, and the “8897 HP” marking on the base.The bottle includes its stopper as shown in the photographs.The bottle form, glass, stopper, labeling and markings should be carefully reviewed in the photographs, as they are an important part of the item’s identification and collectibility.ConditionAntique / pre-owned condition. EMPTY — no perfume is included.This bottle is well over a century old if the estimated period is correct and therefore shows age-related wear consistent with an antique toiletry/perfume bottle. Please carefully enlarge and examine all photographs for the exact condition of the glass, stopper, labels/decoration, base and other surfaces.The photographs are considered part of the condition description.No attempt has been made to restore, polish, repaint or otherwise alter the bottle.Important dating noteThe newspaper evidence establishes that Roger & Gallet Sweet Pea perfume existed by 1915, but it does not by itself establish the exact manufacture year of this individual bottle. Therefore, the early-1900s/1910s dating should be considered an informed period attribution rather than a guaranteed manufacture date.You will receive the exact antique Roger & Gallet bottle pictured.
