Bottle maker? What kind of bottle? Age?

[sarabythesea]

Trying to identify this bottle makers mark, type of bottle & age. VE on bottom but it is not Vetreria Etrusca mark. Wire bail, #2 on bottom of metal topper, with remains of wax on outside of stopper & crown. Bubbles, glass drip marks on lower side & has side seams. Thank you in advance! Sara

Hiya Sara welcome to A-B.net Interesting bottle here.... certainly from abroad - possibly Italian or another Mediterranean country or a Baltic country. I find it interesting that the base is orderly and crisp as is the crowntop lip finish (sorta). But the body is a royal mess.
That is a Putnam stopper I believe. which is also interesting...
Anyways... I don't have anything else to add except thank you for sharing the pics and question.. There are a lot of talented and knowledgeable ppl here that will chime in I'm certain!

Thank you very much Fred!!!

You are very welcome Sara!

just adding that by it's shape and size and type of closer used, it could have been beer or sparkling water or mineral spring water.
