This looks to be an older one...most likely from the 40's.

Yes they do still make atomizer bottles and they make replacement parts for the older ones as well.
Thank you KC and Mart for your help   :)

Just looked and some are still made today !! Yours looks like an older one,,maybe mid century !!  Can you tell anything about the bottle inside
I just looked, cant find markings any where but the bottle is brown. Needs a good cleaning.

I suspect the piece itself is old but he painting/handiwork might not be.  The wording "may your cup runneth over" just sounds like it cam within the past 25, or less, years.
  Guess i'll just find a room to hang it in. I even checked facebook. Surely it didn't belong in a church once. Who knows. Thanks for helping.

This one is in KY !! Did you check it ?  I can`t my computer is on the warpath !!
That's the one I called. Mine says its in WI. And its the wrong area code also. Wonder why yours gives Ky?
 Just found another one called the coffee rocket located in Pa. I emailed them . Im just curious where it originated from and if its as old as I think,just by the wood.Im still thinking someone remodeled years back maybe and got rid of it. Who knows. Maybe always a mystery  lol ???  By the way I found that one by typing in may your cup runneth over on bing. And that came up.

"may your cup runneth over".
Its gold trim around it. I weighed it, almost 10 pounds. The front is beveled glass,the back is just glass.  I don't know maybe im going down the wrong path.  Still trying.

Has any one heard of the chalice? I looked it up, found a few but the one I have belonged to a café. It had pictures but not mine. Its heavy old wood and heavy glass. No name any where else. except whats on the glass. Maybe they redecorated years back and tossed things, I don't know  thank you   Then again maybe it didn't come from a café. Still looking... I just contacted the only chalice I figured it would be. Spoke to the owner, he said he bought it in 79 and it was built in 77. Said he dosent remember a pic like that but wanted me to send a pic.  Guess i'll keep trying.  They were in WI.

No, you didn`t overpay !!   In fact you got a deal on it !!
Wow, I wonder what  it appraises.  I just liked it ,is why I bought it. I thought it was Mary and baby Jesus.
Can some one tell me what these words say. I know its worthless ,just want to know what it says.  Well maybe not worthless just curious about what it says.  I did look up the mans name and I saw the item but it didn't say what the words said. And I cant remember the roman numerals  :-\
I just found it. $17.00   No I didn't do too bad   :)  Thanks for your help Mart

These are collector plates done in alabaster from an original sculpture !!  Your plate A Santine was the artist that sculpted the original !! The studio was Dante Divolteradici and most were done in the late 70`s and 80`s !! That is what the Roman numerals are on the right,, the year made !!  I think yours was 1978 !!
Thank you Mart.  I still think its lovely. I just got it today at the venders mall. paid $5.00.  Hope I didn't pay too much. :)
