Caron Perfume Tester Racks
Nice looking vintage tester racks for Caron perfumes, the first example is in ivory Bakelite, the second example is made up of black and clear lucite. the perfumes shown are La Nuit de Noel, Le Narcisse Noir, Fleurs de Rocaille, Bellodgia,
This is a store perfume tester set for Caron. There are 6 bottles in a black lucite holder with CARON in gold on both sides. To remove the bottles from the display you unscrew the gold knobs on each side and the piece lifts up, otherwise the bottles are locked down so they won't tip over or fall out. The perfumes are Le Narcisse Noir, Le Tabac Blond, Nuit de Noel, Muguet de Bonheur, Fleurs de Rocaile and Bellodgia.Photo from worthopedia.
Vintage Caron mini perfume bottle display. I believe this was a store counter display because the only way to access the bottles is to unscrew the gold knobs at each end and lift off the piece that reads "Caron." None of the 4 bottles have labels or marks of any kind. Each contains a glass dauber for testing the perfume. The bottles measure 2 1/4" tall. The base of the display measures 7" by 2 1/2".
