I love this bottle - so what is it? - 8/7/2006 8:14:54 PM    wrangler88   Posts: 11 Joined: 7/8/2006 From: South Carolina Status: offline I just purchased this milk glass white miniature flask that was sold to me as a snuff bottle.  It is 2.5 inches tall x 0.5 inch thick x 1.5 in across with a crude horse head & horseshoe embossed on it.  Made in Japan on the back, no bottle mark on botton.  Almost opaque in spots with a light shining but otherwise all white.   Was this a baby bottle, snuff bottle or for smelling salts?   The "Made is Japan" tells me it was made after 1921 - correct??  Any experienced opinions would be greatly appreciated - I'm too new at this but I still like it.    Sheryl Attachment (1) < Message edited by wrangler88 -- 8/8/2006 6:00:05 PM > Post #: 1

Maybe one of the baby bottle/antique doll people will clear this up for me. Thanks! I still like it - LOL (in reply to JGUIS) Post #: 3

It definitely is cute _____________________________ Going for a walkabout to find me some treasures..... (in reply to wrangler88) Post #: 5
