Hello All, Purchased at Indianapolis bottle show this last weekend. Dug in Zanesville,OH an early chamfer edge utility with a jagged pontil scar. Over all iridescence. Worth the risk to tumble?[attachment=photo_1 (9).JPG] [attachment=photo_2 (9).JPG] [attachment=photo_3 (6).JPG]

Cool bottle subject ... Chamfer edge utility.I love a nice chamfer on a drawer. I'd tumble it.

I think it looks good with signs of age, tumbling would ruin it.

Pretty nice find! I think the people that collect this type of stuff really do not care much for tumbled pieces. I don't think tumbling would add much if anymore value to it and in fact it may come out looking worse in the end. In the long run though it is your bottle and you should do what makes you happy especially if your going to keep it.
