It didnt take much to bend a bottle neck when their lips were being hand tooled. It's amazing how skilled those glass workers were. If you have ever worked with glass you know how difficult it is. There is very little margin for error. They were really artists. The human touch is why the early bottles are so attractive.

Just an opinion, but I do not believe that botle went through a fire, it just doesn't look melted at all save for the droopy top. I think it was a crude one tht was sent along anyways....Q/C wasn't a big priority, as we collectors all know...
