Massey stated; “Vintage and antique perfume bottles seem to be in high demand. Earlier this month, an unusual Thomas Webb perfume bottle (dated 1885) shaped like a birds head, ended up fetching $9,600 after having an opening bid of only $1.”

Massey added; “Sometimes owners of rare bottles don’t what they have, or what it’s worth, and end up selling them for pennies on the dollar in a garage sale. It’s too bad, because it’s pretty easy to get a general sense of (monetary) value these days. It usually only takes a few minutes using free online sites.”
