Round Bottom Botles - 6/28/2004 9:30:04 AM    wyolady   Posts: 1 Joined: 6/28/2004 Status: offline I bought several round bottom bottles at a yard sale in Iowa just because they were different and looked very old. I am not a collector but might be now. Where can I find info about Round Bottom Bottles? They are aqua color and no markings or writing on them. Thanks Kathryn Post #: 1

A lot of South Australian Aerated Waters manufacturers used them, and a rough date range is late 1840's to 1910 (in South Australia). The patent was from 1843. I have included a photograph of one for you to compare. Many did not have embossing on at all.
