Here is a grouping of three piece mold iron pontiled whiskeys all blown in the same mold. These were probably blown at a Baltimore glass house in the late 1840s early 1850s. The deep puce amethyst example is a recent addition to the group.

Thank you Chris for showing the comparative similarity of these bottles. Was there any detail on the surface of all four of them that gives away the fact that they were all made in the same mold? It is really a unique collection set. I noted the sloppy glass under three of them, They even look like the same finish tool might have been ued on three of them. Thank you again. RED Matthews
