Also lacks the pontil, unlike yours. A Clevenger catalog I have notes your flask is called a Diamond Bottle.. Still trying to locate if any Clevenger examples were pontiled. _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc....and...

Someone needs to do a thorough  and well researched book on the Clevengers and their wares.   _____________________________ * Member: Bristol Historical Assoc....and...
