Just thought I would share a picture of one of my saxelhiners bitterquells bottles. A bottle you can dig or buy easily and displays like a gem.

I have seen quite a few of these over the years the same as most other collectors I suspect Jamie. They were all the same color , but some are a bit lighter than others. I always thought this would have been a super nice bottle had the embossing been on the side of the bottle and not the bottom of it . I love its crudeness  .

Its a good example of how a backwards country can make bottles that look like they are 50 years older than thier American cousins

Never saw an emerald one , that would be something to write home about

I had one that was yellow amber, dark at the base and getting lighter as you went to the neck. really cool for a common bottle. It was one of the pics I posted on here when i became a member. I can't find the pic in my files and I think I sold the bottle???? If I didin't it will show up at the next show I set up and Then I,ll post a pic.

Well it is me again:  I have missed out on being familiar with this bottle.  But the pattern in the picture doesn't exactly like whittle or cold-mold ripple to me.  Is it in the glass or on the outside, as a finished rough surfaced bottle?  If it is in the glass it seems to trend in a vertical direction.  Also I realized your referred to it a newer bottle and with a name I wasn't familiar with.   You also said the embossed lettering is on the bottom.  You have captured my interest.  Please tell me more.
Thanks  RED Matthews
