Outstanding and extremely rare 1930's "Hollywood Star" perfume bottle with clear stopper and malachite glass bottle. We discovered both original 1930's molds (bottle and stopper) back in 1996. After questioning why no pieces currently exist from this mold, we were told that 60 years ago, the production of this piece was not feasible secondary to a high rate of inconsistencies. Apparently 9 out of every 10 stoppers for this piece were warped following the first stage of the manufacturing process making further finishing steps impossible. Due to this high rate of loss, the maker decided not to market any bottles with this "Hollywood Star" stopper. It is for this reason that you will not find a single listing for this item in any publications on the subject. Although high percentage failure rate still exists now 60 years later, we have taken on the challenge of producing a limited number of these stoppers despite the tremendous expense. Therefore this item cannot be considered a reissue or reproduction. This is technically an ORIGINAL piece made today with the same painstaking steps endured by craftsman of the 1930's. Mint condition, dimension : 7-1/2"H x 4"W..
