Hi all. Here's a cool thing I got to share and need help with:
In October, I bought a bottle off of EBay - it was an aqua Dr. Thompson's Eye Water bottle that dated 1870s-1890s. Very cool. Even better was for Christmas, I got another bottle of the same kind, except this one was frosty and green - not just aqua, but definately green. I think it might date from the same time, maybe earlier. The green glass feels different (like the pieces of sea glass that you can buy in stores), but the aqua bottle feels like a regular glass bottle. The green glass also feels heavier and thicker. Any info about the differences of age, etc.?
Thanx, Bottle Girl
