The positive side is that we all improve our knowledge, and our bottle database. Thanks

Let us know if you ever find out anything about it. I'm betting it is pretty rare since it didnt seem to be listed anywhere.

Great looking Hamilton. Doing investigation on it provides the following from a well known Hamilton specialist.

I've not heard of your specific manufacturer before but have seen similar bottles in colour and shape..and "product naming/addresses" before. This style of bottle with the rolled lip will date into the late 1830's to the mid 1840's. It is from the immediate post-pontil era.


Some of the similar bottles are JOHNSONS, SCHWEPPES and FORDS. Some of the similar addresses are SILVER STREET NEAR OXFORD and SOHO IN LONDON. Some of the product names were HIGHLY CARBONATED SODA WATER, DOUBLE CARBONATED SODA WATER & CELEBRATED DOUBLE SODA.


Seems back then, as now, there are trends...and their trend was to publicise the carbonation and give cross references/coordinates to their businesses' addresses.


These are interesting older torpedo bottles that fall in the $150 and up to $300 value range.

If ever yuo are interested in selling it please let me know.

You have given me a very good trace.
As I can see, you agree with Gunther.
We are nearer than ever before to achieve the identification.
Excuse me, but I'm not interested in selling it.
Thanks so much for your great help

Hi Botil.
Your Hindle bottle is from the U K and would date from the 1890 -1900 period.

The early Hamilton is a great looking bottle and as from the information given by Clive Freedman his reply is pretty well on the mark. Is your bottle aqua in color or has it a green tinge to it

Could anyone identify this monolith embossed on it. Is it a famous place of London?
It seems that there is a statue on top of it.

The bottle is aqua and don't have a green tinge. The photo could be better.

THe Embossing is a Statue in the centre of London Called Nelsons Column. Probably Londons most celebrated monument and quite topically really since the end of last month celebrated Nelson's Bicentinial year. Nelson was the greatest Admiral of the fleet ever.

I've got a new camera

An answer at last!
Answer from an UK forum:

Post Office London Directory 1841
13 St. Mary at Hill
G. Purt - Soda Water, Lemonade, &c. ma
Thomas Purt - Dairyman
Post Office London Directory (Small Edition) 1852
13 St. Mary at Hill
George Purt - Soda water, lemonade, & ginger beer manufacturer & importer of dantzic spruce
8 Water Lane, Great Tower Street
Bottled ale & stout merchant.

And another fantastic bottle known (not mine)
quote:




THE BOTTLE ON THE FAR RIGHT IS THE ONLY GREEN EXAMPLE FROM PURT'S THAT I KNOW OF.  IT'S GOT A STRANGE ELONGATED NARROW NECK, SMALL ROLLED LIP, & UNUSUAL FLATTENED EMBOSSED LETTERING.  IT IS EMBOSSED ALL ROUND THE BODY:  PURTS/CELEBRATED/DOUBLE/SODA=WATER/13 St MARY AT HILL/CITY/OF LONDON.

This forum have helped me identifying a few bottles, so its fair to share information with you.

Autumn is here and winter is coming, but beaches are still there.
Not so cold but not hot (night-time temperatures are between 5 and 10 degrees Celsius and day-time between 12 and 18 degrees)
I'll post some photos soon.
