- Antiue French Beauty Pot that reads:
PARFUMERIE LA PERLE
Cold-Cream de Perles Fines
Bardin & Cie
Paris
Cold-Cream de Perles Fines – a luxury cold cream, used for cleansing, moisturizing, and protecting the skin. Parfumerie La Perle is the brand or perfume house name. Bardin & Cie, Paris is the manufacturer/distributor, based in Paris.
Cold cream was a staple of skincare from the 1800s into the early 1900s, especially among upper- and middle-class women. “Perles fines” (“fine pearls”) was marketing language suggesting refinement, luminosity, and prestige rather than literal pearl content (though some creams did include pearl powder or nacre in tiny amounts).
The lid is in good condition with a gold colored transfer with minor fade, and no chips or cracks. The base is in good condition with a few minor chips near the top rim that do not show with the lid in place, and one small chip on the bottom. This is a unique advertising pot to bring variety to your collection.
Measures approximately 1 1/2” tall and 3” diameter.

This is an authentic antique advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful antique pots for over 10 years from sources who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US.
Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and traveling the countryside antiquing.
On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.
Returns are not excepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions.
