Definitely period and not a repro. Turn-mold bottles are collectible—I find them in 1880s–1900s sites. Seen a range of sizes from split to magnum. Nice pickup.
Yeah, I had several in differing ages, a few that were from mid 1800's (but you can easliy see the difference) sizes, shades and lip styles. I sadly lost a 7" version that was pale grass green! (to a summer thunderstorm that blew the kitchen curtains and sent the bottle to the trash can in two thousand pieces)I find them in 1880s–1900s sites. Seen a range of sizes from split to magnum.

Looking forward to it.Thanks for the help got some more wonderful finds ill post later
Maybe this can help.Is this bottle new ment to look older or is it actually from the 1800s. No writing or stamps anywhere. Ps also no seams

I just read that the stronger the pressurization of the liquid in the bottle the deeper the punt. The deeper the punt, the better the wine.Sorry for your loss buddy.
I like the 1860's style Bordeaux bottles. Super deep kick-up.
