I'm finding large blue/green with thick glass bottles that I think are Japanese soy sauce bottles in the forest on Rota, CNMI (a micronesian island).
I'm just looking for any more information anyone might have or tips on how to age them. I think they range in ages. Some look very worn some look almost new. I'm interested to know if these bottles continued coming to Rota after the second world war, or if they all arrived here prior to 1945 and made their way into the forest with Japanese soldiers in WWII.
Some of them say YAMASASHOYUCO LTD TRADE (two lines symbol) MARK
Some say NODA SHOYU CO TRADE (hexagon symbol) MARK
Some say nothing at all but are an identical shaped and sized bottle.
As far as I can tell, the Noda Shoyu name was used from 1925 to 1964.
Any information will be appreciated!
