Grande Liqueur des Pyrénées Mignonnette vintage 60s red cap

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This antique miniature bottle represents a small liqueur bottle, typical of French productions from the 1960s. The bottle is made of transparent glass, revealing an amber-colored liqueur, rich and luminous. Its compact shape, with rounded shoulders and a short neck, corresponds to the aesthetic of spirit miniatures from this period.

The visible side features a bright yellow label with scalloped edges, adorned with a central coat of arms surmounted by a crown, a graphic detail characteristic of the regional style. The inscription "Grande Liqueur des Pyrénées" is clearly legible in red and black gothic letters, reinforcing the traditional and authentic character of the product. The mention "Liqueur" is particularly highlighted, suggesting a regional recipe, with no visible commercial brand indication.

The cap is red, with a matte finish, screwed onto the neck. No signs of opening or leakage are apparent on the visible part. The label shows signs of age: slight patina, slightly uneven edges, but the colors remain vibrant and the text perfectly legible.

The bottle is photographed from the front, allowing for observation of the liquid's clarity and the overall good preservation. No additional decoration is visible on the front. No details are observable on the back or base of the bottle, consistent with the shooting angle.

This type of miniature was frequently used as a sample or for decoration, and attests to the heritage of French spirits, particularly specialties from the Pyrenees.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The label shows an aged patina and some minor age-related marks, without affecting legibility. The cap and glass are in good apparent condition on the visible side.
