I think this might be pre-1900 but forgive me if I am wrong and I will repost in the other section.
This bottle is a lovely dark green colour. There are lots of bubbles in the glass and the surface is uneven in areas (see photo 2).
The bottle is 4 sided and has a sort of textured area on the shoulders. I can see a seam, but only on the arched area of the shoulders. It doesn't go up to the lip and it doesn't go down to the rest of the bottle. (note pic 5)
The base is concave in the middle and it rests on the 4 corners (photo 3). It has a significant lean as I hope you will see in the pics, esp pic 1. The top seems to be somewhat messily applied (see pic 4).
Any ideas about what this bottle might have been used for or where it came from, or value?
It's one of my favourites of the bottles I have found on my farm so far.
Thanks,
Claire
