AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Antique mini liquor bottle from the Bommerlunder brand, presented in a clear glass bottle with a metallic blue screw cap. The item is photographed from the front, revealing an original label with a beige and black design, typical of productions from the second half of the 20th century. The label bears the inscription "Originalabfüllung für Lufthansa," indicating a special edition for Lufthansa airlines, as well as several details printed in German, including "Bommerlunder" in central characters, "40 Vol.%" and the inscription "Gegründet im Jahre 1760."

The bottle has a classic cylindrical shape with a rounded shoulder, characteristic of liquor miniatures distributed onboard or as promotional editions. The print on the label includes finely drawn graphic elements, including medal motifs and inscriptions in Gothic and capital letters, highlighting the traditional roots of the German brand Bommerlunder.

The metal cap is intact and shows a slight relief at the threading. The compact-looking bottle is placed on an antique piece of furniture with golden ornamentation, which highlights the patina and retro style of the whole. No stopper or additional closure is visible, apart from the screw cap.

The liquid level in the bottle appears low or absent (bottle clearly empty or almost empty), which indicates an item kept for decorative or collection purposes, typical of vintage liquor miniatures.

The inscriptions on the label are partially legible, notably: "BOMMERLUNDER," "40 VOL.%," "FIRMA G. DETHELFESEN, FLENSBURG," "Gegründet im Jahre 1760," "ORIGINALABFÜLLUNG FÜR LUFTHANSA," "DEUTSCHES ERZEUGNIS." A red marking "ORIGINAL BEFÜLLUNG" is also clearly visible.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. The original label shows a patina and some visible signs of wear, consistent with age and handling. The metal cap is in apparent good condition. The bottle appears empty or almost empty.
