Thanks for looking!
My main question is about the teal one. Is it a soda? Also, the hutch and this bottle age.
Thank you!
Dave

Green one was a soda, beer or mineral/spring water. 1860-1870's. The hutch looks around 1900. It held soda.

Is it the way the top is applied on the green bottle that would tell you that ? I have a somewhat similar green bottle with the same kind of top but it’s a little bit more crudely applied then the one pictured?

Tooled with a lipping tool. Drippy double collared lip. Picture of the older one would be cool. Here is an 1850's example.

Was my green one an iron pontil?
There is a similar one on ebay. They are calling it a porter or ale.
Yes it could have been porter or ale. Post a really clear picture of the base. Use lots of light or go outside.

Ok, will do tonight. Working a 16 hour day today.
I worked all weekend last and this week. Do it while we can, right? No rush on the pics. Do you know if the bottle was ever tumbled? I have seen the iron tumbled off. I like a circle of metal fused to the punt. Is that what yours looks like? Post a question and a picture and let's see what the members say.
