Our Mission:
The purpose of the International Perfume Bottle Association is to provide information and education about all aspects of perfume and scent bottles, compacts, purses, ephemera, and other related vanity items, including researching their uses, history, manufacture, and significance; to promote collecting of these items; and to promote fellowship among its members and outreach to other collectors.
If you are a collector of perfume bottles or vanity items and related ephemera mark your calendars for Jan 1st and 2nd so you can peruse the IPBA Members only section of the website. It has a wealth of beautiful photos and information! Teri Wirth
