For more than 80 years, Avon has been selling health and beauty products, personal care, jewelry, perfumes, clothing, and many other items.  Avon Products began in 1886 as the California Perfume Company.  In the mid 1960s, Avon began producing novelty containers for perfumes.  Avon collaborated with many companies over the years who supplied Avon with the beautiful  containers to house their large, and ever changing variety, of perfumes, soaps and candles.  Some of the best known suppliers were:  Tiffany & Company, Wheaton Glass Company, Seth Thomas, Oneida Silver, Mikasa China, and the Fostoria Glass.  Collectors loved the new products, and Avon began creating more items to draw in their customers.  Decanters and other glassware have become a favorite of collectors.  There are still many collectors who value the nostalgia these pieces have and the beauty they bring to their homes.  We read recently that Avon will be doing away with their collectibles, or at the very least reducing the number that will be entering the market.  Soon the secondary market will be the only way to find these nostalgic pieces.
