Although Avon started selling perfume as far back as 1886, (as the California Perfume Company), they didn't introduce costume jewelry until 1963, and sales started around 1965.  Most of the early pieces, like this one, was sold packaged with a perfume or other cosmetic product.  By 1975, Avon was the world's biggest costume-jewelry producer.
