    Would like to identify and date this clear--flask? Liqueur bottle? With kick-up base

    I know this style is typically for wine, but is this a little small for that? Some kind of liqueur, maybe? Any info on dates and place of manufacture is appreciated!

    Could anyone tell me anything about these demijohns?

    Thank you so much, this is much more than I knew before, so I really appreciate your help!

    Could anyone tell me anything about these demijohns?

    I tried to get some good pics in the light, and these are the best I could do. I can see clearly that the mold was three parts, there are seams on the shoulders down to the horizontal seam. I hope these are good enough to help with dating. Also, if it helps, it's 17 inches tall.

    Could anyone tell me anything about these demijohns?

    Okay, thanks so much! I'll be able to get more pictures tomorrow, and I'll get it out in the sun and take lots.

    Could anyone tell me anything about these demijohns?

    I think the green one is two-piece? Is that an applied lip? I'd love to know the approximate dates on these, and is there any way to figure out where they were made?

    Decanter of some kind?

    I think it's a decanter, based on the shape, but missing a stopper. I think it's pre-1900, but I'm not sure at all. There is a raised open loop/swirl on the side--is that some kind a decoration? Would a label have been stuck there?

    Well, I guess I'm in the wrong subforum then, oops! Thank you so much--I'm very new at this, and I appreciate the education. :) That's very cool.

    Very heavy green beer or ale bottle?

    I think this is 19th c. but I could be wrong---it has very thick glass at the bottom, so it's quite heavy for it's size. Is it for beer, ale, or something else? Is that an open pontil, or what's going on there? There's a sharp edge, but it also looks molded? I'd love to know approximate date...

    Tall with a green gradient, olive oil bottle, maybe?

    I'm searching around, and maybe a Farina cologne bottle? Or, in the style of? I don't know how I'd positively identify it without a label.

    Tall with a green gradient, olive oil bottle, maybe?

    Yes, it is quite tippy. We keep it laid on it's side in a display cabinet. I wouldn't feel comfortable with it upright without some sort of stand for it.

    Tall with a green gradient, olive oil bottle, maybe?

    I'd love to know the approximate date, and the original function of this bottle? Anything anyone can tell me about it would be wonderful, really! This is from my family estate, so it could have originated in the New England area, which is where most of my family lived.

    Hi, I'm new.

    I've never been a collector, but I've been working on an inventory of my family's estate, which includes a lot of old glass bottles (and other glassware). I'd like to learn more about them, so I can accurately identify and maybe eventually figure values. It's been especially challenging trying...
