The Coty “Continental Cutter” perfume sleigh, introduced in 1941, is an enchanting novelty presentation designed to resemble a storybook-sized winter sleigh. Crafted from delicate pink and gold plastic, it features graceful gilt runners and three genuine tinkling bells that enhance its festive charm.
The sleigh holds two Louvre crystal parfum bottles—L’Aimant and L’Origan—each nestled into small lacy blankets as though prepared for a magical winter ride. The presentation measures approximately 7½ inches long, 3¾ inches high, and 2⅛ inches wide, making it a compact yet eye-catching display piece.
Marketed as “a delightful gift” for the holiday season, the set offered a whimsical way to enjoy two of Coty’s classic fragrances. It retailed for $3.95 in 1941, positioning it as an affordable yet imaginative keepsake during the early 1940s.
