“Kobako” BOURJOIS, Paris — “Kobako” (1936) Bourjois’s famous Japanese-inspired perfume, presented in a case designed to resemble carved red lacquer. The bottle, made of clear, frosted, press-molded glass with a flattened round shape, is entirely embossed with a design of flowers and foliage inspired by the Far East. It is topped with a frosted mushroom-shaped cap featuring the same design and retains its original sealing wire around the neck. It bears a metal tag inscribed “Kobako - Bourjois - Paris.” 8 × 6 × 3.5 cm. It is presented in its original box with a curved top, whose lid is covered with embossed paper imitating carved cinnabar lacquer, featuring a relief decoration of chrysanthemums and inscribed with “Kobako – Bourjois – Paris.” The base is black with a frieze of gold Greek motifs and scrollwork. 11 × 7 × 4 cm. Oxidized tag; wear and small chips on the box, particularly on the base.
