I found this berry bottle many years ago and have always wondered it's age. I found some info on a similar bottle claiming to be from the 1860's with a different lip. http://m.ebay.com/itm/201846605497

Nice bottle. Late 1860's/early 1870's for sure.

You don't show the base / bottom to see if it's pontiled, probably Iron pontil, which would date it to early 1860s. It definitely dates back to late 60s to 70s as already stated. I've seen these in some wonderful color, I've owned a couple of aqua.

Thanks! No pontil on base. There are seams going up the side to the scalloped section. The lip looks really old to me.

Crude applied top..nice aqua color. I'd say post Civil War as stated.
