Hi All,
I have a strange bottle here. It looks like a measuring spoon but is very crude.
I cannot make out what is says other than LONDON on top and MAY on the bottom. Tablespoon and increments on the back. It looks cut off on top.

We had one just like yours except the lip was rounded. I no longer have the reference book that identified it as a baby doll nurser, but I'm certain that that's what it is.

Hello Tekma; That iwhat is called a burst off finish some times. With that size bottle, I think it was jut wetted with a wet wooden tool and snapped off the blow-pipe. An interesting English bottle. RED Matthews

Let me offer a slightly different take on the baby/nurser idea. You say it has tablespoon increments on the back? Could it possibly be a baby medicine nurser? You wouldn't want to give your baby too much opium or alcohol. Cool little bottle.
