Default unusual flask

Anyone have any idea what type of flask this is? It is amber and embossed with leaves and the skin of an orange? The only inscription reads "E. Alziary" then "depose" underneath. Good luck figuring this one.

Default Flask

ALZIARY means BACK PAIN...Must be a flask that contained Back pain medicine at one time...Medicine flask.

Default Thanks Pappy

I had orginally thought it was a perfume bottle or something of the like.

davidrrt1,

It is never a wise idea to contradict anything Pappy Id's, he is the best there is. But I think your perfume assumption was correct.

The attachment is a business card for E. Alziary, a perfume manufacturer in France. I think that they produced the contents of the bottle. It may say Grasse France elsewhere on the bottle.

Depose is french for a registered trademark.

Sorry Pap,
HJ

Maybe it's a really stinky perfume...so much so that it's a "PAIN IN THE BACK"

Wish I could see the pics, but for some reason, I see the attached file box, but no images. Anyone else having this problem?
