Have you seen this Irish bottle before or something similar? Can you help identify and date it?

It is green glass embossed with an image of St. Patrick bordered by shamrocks. It was found in the foundations of an old farm house in Ireland.

Well, I haven't seen that before but from the tall, skinny shape I'd guess it's a vinegar or a lime juice.

The lip looks similar to what you see on a lot of end of 19th century English sauce bottles and some wines. How tall is it?

That style top was generally used on oils. It is a very interesting bottle.

I believe this is the lip finish.
