H&A Gilley Bottle

[Linda B.]

Have this 12" clear (slightly aqua) bottle embossed with "H&A Gilley" that looks like it was free-hand written on the bottle. There are a number of bubbles in the glass, including one in the lip. There is a piece of cork still inside the bottle. Cany anyone provide any info/background on this one? []

Hi Linda,
The bottle youve got there looks to be a H&A Gilby Gin bottle. Gilbys is an English company, & I think there still going today. I dont think that this bottle is particulary
rare, but it is still a good looking early bottle. They date about 1880-1900.

Cheers

Hi,
I just found several bottles walking the dog. Think it's a landfill from the 1930's. First bottle on the left is H & A Gillrey Ltd. If anyone can tell me about the other bottles that would be fantastic.

Kind regards
Paul
