Shame its not embossed as its a great colour !!
dates to about 1890s by the look of it..
These types of bottles were invented in the late 1790s early 1800s to contain soda water or
other fizzy drinks,,they were designed to be stored on their sides so the liquid inside would be in contact with the cork,keeping it moist and sealing the bottle to prevent loss of gas,,

hello grimdigger 1 are these types of bottles valuable

 

[grimdigger1]

Would have been quite valueable if it was embossed approx $500 +
unembossed would say approx $100 as the colours great
