Can someone please verify if this is a pre-1800 wine bottle?

Not my area of expertise but a pic of the bottom might help fellow collectors with ID. Where did you come across it?

It's an old one, but I don't think it's anywhere near pre-1800 unfortunately.

This bottle would date around 1840 - 1850 and would have held French Cognac. These bottles are also known as cheats bottles because of the very high kick up which lowered the amount of liquid.

Is there more information about these 'cheat bottles'
