Quaker Silver Company

The Quaker Silver Company had an elegant gold plated/silver-plated stemmed atomizer that has its embossed areas picked out in black enamel. This bottle can be found with it’s design patent number of 75919 on the base which corresponds to the date of 1928 and was filed by James W. Jennings, the assignor to the Quaker Silver Company. This item was originally designed for a salt & pepper shaker and similar article as noted on the design patent drawing. The bottle can also be found with the markings “Juanita Atomizer” and “736 Reg.“. The atomizer hardware looks to be made by Pyramid. An example of this perfume atomizer is shown in the Monsen & Baer Perfume Bottle Auction Catalog of 2002.

Antique German Bisque Porcelain Perfume Atomizer - Girl with Large Basket

Antique German Bisque Porcelain Perfume Atomizer - Girl with Large Basket. This piece dates to about 1895-1920. The girl stands 4 1/4" tall and the atomizer section stands 5 3/8" tall. The base is merely molded with a "14" which is most likely the mold number for the company that produced it. I do not know which Germany company made this cute little piece.

G. de Beffort & Co

G. de Beffort was located at 66 rue de Bondy in Paris, they produced perfume atomizers, perfume burners, garnitures de toilette, barber supplies, and various hardware such as metal sprinkler crown tops for perfume bottles.

The company won the Grand Prix at the Exposition Internationale in Paris in 1911. One of their patented products was Cistaflor - a perfume burner and known for their pocket atomizers sold under the brand name "Ketma". The Ketma atomizer I believe was used by Maurice Babani.

They had an office at 2 St-Georges Avenue, 2, Aldermanbury, EC, in London.

The company was still in business in 1923 as I have evidence of a hand dated invoice.

c1911

The 1923 invoice shown above illustrates one of the Ketma pocket sized perfume atomizers in the upper right corner. 

From Pauline Turco's collection. This German porcelain perfume elephant is one of the small animal atomizer bottles by Schafer & Vater, model number 886. The tan monochrome glaze highlights the fine detail of this piece. Labels on both sides of the elephant identify the atomizer " Ketma". The atomizer hardware is stamped, "Made in France." As is often the case, the bottle is German made and the atomizer hardware was from France. This S&V model was sold as a souvenir at the Exposition Coloniale Internationale in Paris, France in 1931. Shown on page 115 of The Crown Top Book by Pauline Turco. Size: Approximately 3" h. including atomizer hardware and bulb.
