Your bottle I presume from you description is a reproduction . And they come in a lot of different colorations. Not much monetary value , but they do make a nice window bottle . Does yours say " WHEATON " on the bottom ? Or perhaps " Made in China " ?  Hope this helps ! And don't hesitate to ask anymore bottle questions on the forum . This is a GREAT bunch of guys and gals on here , and they all will help with questions about Glass .  Brian  _____________________________ Tennessee Hillbilly Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most !
