Pretty Whittled Flask

[CrewelaDeVil]

Does anyone know anything about this flask. Nice color & thick glass. What kind of mark is on the bottom? TIA

That is a great flask! Looks to be an early flask from a New England glasshouse to me - but I'm sure there are others here who can give you more info. Very, very nice!

Wow - I was way off on that one! I thought I'd seen a similar New England flask - still very nice!

Cindy, there is a shoo-fly flask from New England that looks very similar, but normally the necks are longer, and the lip is different... This one looks more like a Dutch flask...

It is a neat bottle!

Looks like a stoddard flask and a dutch gin got busy and had a young'un...

Thanks alot guys.
Annie- I assumed it was an eastern product myself (or was hoping anyway)

Anyone have a value on it?
I got this at a bottle show 2 yrs ago.

I bought one knife edge coffin flask and a shoo fly similar to yours about 15 years ago out of a Heckler Auction.I sold the one similar to yours on ebay for $225.00.These were identified by Heckler as eastern flasks, I respect his judgement. I still have the other in my flask collection.

Id guess between 20 - 50 bucks depending Pam, hard to say. I know I would pick it up in a heart beat or be very happy to dig it!
