Avon's US Capitol Building decanter — rendered in warm amber glass with a gold-tone dome — brings a quiet piece of American history to the shelf.
Maker: Avon; discontinued
Materials: Glass, plastic lid
Dimensions: 6.0" tall; 2.75" x 3.0" at base
Origin: USA
Fragrance: Tribute aftershave; nearly empty, just a trace of original fragrance remains
Era: Vintage, 1970s–1980s (estimated)
Condition: Good vintage condition — bottle is nearly empty; the tiny Statue of Freedom at the peak of the dome lid is slightly bent (we chose not to attempt straightening it for fear of breakage; photographed clearly for review); all other details perfect, priced accordingly. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.
Perfect for display during patriotic holidays, election season, or as part of an Avon figural collection — and with America having just marked its 250th anniversary in 2026, a piece like this carries extra resonance.
This is one of Avon's beloved figural decanters, part of the novelty collectible line the company began introducing in the late 1960s. The amber glass captures the Capitol's architectural silhouette beautifully — the colonnaded facade, the tiered base, the iconic dome — a small, charming object with a lot of presence.
