Sainte Baume mignonette vintage liqueur, green glass bottle, period label

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This miniature bottle represents an old liqueur bottle from the Sainte Baume brand, identifiable by the original label visible on the front. The bottle is made of green tinted glass, with a slender shape typical of liquor miniatures. It is topped with a golden metallic screw cap, whose finish has a slight sheen, highlighting the traditional character of this type of container.

The label, beautifully adorned with period graphic motifs, clearly mentions "Grande Liqueur de Provence," as well as the name "Sainte Baume" in stylized red and black characters. The alcohol content (43°) and printed coat of arms are also visible, reinforcing the authenticity and retro charm of the object. The bottom of the label shows the mention "A. Maunier, Aubagne."

The bottle shows good transparency, revealing the green reflections of the glass under the light. No content is visible from the photographed area, but the bottle appears to be well-sealed with its original cap. The general condition of the label shows some signs of age, including slight marks and patina, but the text remains largely legible and the graphic decorations are preserved.

The typography and graphic style of the label, combined with the classic shape of the miniature bottle, suggest production dating from the mid-20th century, in the spirit of advertising or souvenir bottles of regional spirits. This type of object was often offered as a sample or gift during distillery visits.

In the photo, only the front of the bottle is visible; no details of the back, bottom, or interior are observable.
