Green grape figural bottle - 1/18/2012 8:14:47 PM    Wheelah23 Posts: 4294 Joined: 8/9/2010 From: Glen Ridge, New Jersey Status: offline I'm posting this in pre-1900 because it's blown, but it's probably after 1900. Anyway, it was dug (I assume) by a woman in Staten Island during the 70's or 80's. I thought it might've been modern-ish, but recent encouragement makes me think it might be real... Any idea how old it is, or even what it is? Whaddya think it's worth? I've seen plenty of modern ones online when I searched "grape figural bottle", so I couldn't find any genuine old ones.

I imagine this was a very difficult mold to make.

It looks like it should be blown, but after a closer inspection, it looks to be ABM... But very faint. I'm not so sure anymore.
