It appears to be a Victorian poison, probably English or at least Brittish. I havent found the mark yet , my sources for European marks are somewhat limited.

Most definitely a UK poison bottle from the 1900 - 1920 pieriod,,
Believe that Y G & Co stands fro the york glass works company but may need a little further research on that one
These poisons are readily available in the UK
