A vintage French black glass perfume bottle with a red stopper. The fashion house of Jean Patou asked Jean Kerleo to create a new perfume, which they named 1000 in French, Mille, to be envisioned as a Super Joy. Joy was created with a lot of care, just like the most expensive Haute Cotture dress, and thus it was extraordinary and timeless. It was presented by Jean Patou as the worlds most expensive perfume right at the time of The Great Depression in 1929, when the market of luxury fashion crushed and Jean Patous house could survive only through the perfumes. In 1932 Jean Patou designed a small black and red bottle in which this perfume is also presented. Marked, Jean Patou France, on the bottom. Vintage and Modern European Glass Perfume and Snuff Bottles, Vanity Wares, and Collectibles.
