Antique Glass Perfume Bottle with broken neck
The antique amber perfume bottle was sent to me with a broken neck and broken dauber. First step in the restoration process is to remove the broken neck on the antique glass bottle. Great care is taken to remove what was left of the neck with out damaging the bottle.

I have several metal perfume bottles. They have the glass
vial insets and a glass wand/dauber inserted
in a metal channel in the top. Some are missing the
glass vial and the glass wand. Where can I find replacements?
They appear to be same size vial and same size
Wand/dauber.
Thanks,

How much would it cost to fix an antique cobalt blue glass perfume bottle. It has a crack inside of the neck. There is a thin decoration of silver on the outside of the neck. Please provide a rough estimate if you can.
