Well, your bottle is not as old as this one. I'd guess it's early 20th Century. Probably had a wood case for shipping, rather than wicker. But that's a guesss.
Mine is a globular form, 20 inches tall (5 gallons), colorless glass, applied and tooled lip, American, mid-1800s. Stencilled on the wicker cover is:

MYER & CO

FULTON

COVINGTON, KY

Myer & Company shipped whiskey in these bottles in the mid-nineteenth century. "Fulton" is a whiskey brand acquired when Myer bought out the distillery.
