Can someone please verify if this is a pre-1800 wine bottle?
Historic Portsmouth, NHNot my area of expertise but a pic of the bottom might help fellow collectors with ID. Where did you come across it?
Is there more information about these 'cheat bottles'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.
