SET OF TWO BOTTLES - ONE SMALL 4 1/8" Tall and ONE MEDIUM 5 3/4" Tall
Schiaparelli produced Sleeping, designed by Rene Magritte, one of whose works, The Key of Dreams, provided the idea for the bottle for the perfume "Sleeping" a candle stick made up of Baccarat crystal.
- I believe the SMALL one is a PROMO bottle - it does not have the ...gold paint highlights as the larger styles have. - Medium bottle 5 3/4" tall is embossed on bottom "Schiaparelli"
The "Sleeping de Schiaparelli" candlestick perfume bottles (c.1938) were designed by Surrealist painter René Magritte. Elsa Schiaparelli introduced "Sleeping de Schiaparelli" as a feminine night perfume, connecting the fragrance with her avant-garde style and surreal dreamscape fashions. Known for recruiting and collaborating with the top Surrealist artists of the time, Schiaparelli chose to enroll the most celebrated Belgian artist of the 20th Century to design the perfume bottle, René Magritte. Magritte created a flacon inspired by his idiosyncratic oil painting "The Key of Dreams", 1930. A perfume bottle from this line is featured in the Brooklyn Museum Costume Collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City. - Grace E. Hummel, CleopatrasBoudoir Blogspot
