I found this Piesse and Lubin perfume bottle in my front yard. The company traded from 1855 until the 1950's.
My house was built in 1880, and interestingly the bottle looks identical to a couple that were recovered from a shipwreck in Bermuda dating back to 1864,
It's an interesting story:
"In February 2011, a strong winter storm exposed and removed a stable sediment layer deep within the intact bow section of the shipwreck Mary Celestia, a Civil War Blockade Runner sunk in 1864 off the south shore of Bermuda in 55 feet of water. Four months later, over a seven-day excavation, a local and international team of marine archaeologists, co-led by Philippe Max Rouja, (Bermudas Custodian of historic shipwrecks), James Delgado (NOAA) and Dominique Rissollo (Waitt Institute) uncovered and rescued a small cache of hidden artifacts from the Mary Celestia, including perfume bottles embossed Piesse & Lubin London."
