You find these in either amber or deep strawberry red. It hard to tell what color yours is from a photo. Is it red or red amber.

I'd say red amber. It needs a bath though. Does that metal cap fit over a taper lip or is the lip treatment different on that one?

The two in my photos have a different lip style. I had one with a similar tapered applied lip as yours but can’t find the photo.

That is not quite it Steve, but close. This one is more of a globular form, like a softball, and the one you point out is elongated.

I am pretty confident that this is not a Stanger piece, but rather an 1840-1860 piece, and either Jersey area or Baltimore. There are some examples in amber that were produced in New England, and also in the Midwest.
