« on: September 13, 2014, 03:57:30 pm »
 bought this at an auction today. It looks old to me but im not sure if they still make them.  The bottom has W 8 on it. Its not gold. The pic looks like its silver but its gold plated.

Beautiful atomizer bottle !!  If they are still made anywhere,, I haven`t heard about it !!  Its probably an 8oz.bottle,, that's why the 8 on the bottom !!  Have you looked closely on the metal cover for a name ??  Can we see the bottom mark ??

I just looked, cant find markings any where but the bottle is brown. Needs a good cleaning.

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.
I'm from the South - but please don't mistake my Southern Manners/Accent/Charm as a weakness!
