The RLB mark was sometimes accompanied by "Made in France" and their perfume burners are marked Catalyseur (these lamps were direct competitors to Lampe Berger). They supplied hardware to Saint Louis, Baccarat, Limoges and various Czech factories.
Erelbe was situated at 19, rue Richer, Paris, France (c1935-1958).
The company produced
I have seen some bottles with the RLB monogram that sellers mistakenly claim are Rene Lalique, because of the RL in the monogram. Please note that this absolutely does not stand for Rene Lalique. If you happen to find such a bottle attributed to Lalique with the mark of RLB, please do not buy it on premise of a Lalique bottle as it is misappropriated.
Érelbé also produced perfume lamps of fine Limoges porcelain, sometimes you will find a mark such as “Serpaut Érelbé Limoges France”. This is the mark for Charles Serpaut. Serpaut worked for Bernardaud, and left in the early 1920's to form his own company. His company made the Art Deco perfume lamps as well as small porcelain perfume bottles, was in business in Limoges between the early 1920s til about 1930. You should find the little perfume bottles marked "Erelbe" and with the Serpaut backstamp on the porcelain.
Societe Erelbe was still doing business in the 1950s as evidenced by a patent filed in France for a spray apparatus and was still listed as a company in 1965 as "Etablissements Erelbe S.A. (manufacturer, dealer), 19 Rue Richer, Paris 9e" in the International Commerce, Volume 71.
