I haven't posted much lately, but here's one that I finally put on the shelf after first seeing it about 30 years ago. Fairly rare, with a few examples out there, but I wanted this specific example. It's as crude as I've seen in any embossed mold blown bottle. No etching or staining. What you see is thousands of tiny bubbles giving it that appearance. Believed to be a Charleston bottle. Dates to the 1830s, possibly the late 1820s.

I can only dream of finding one. It sold in a recent auction. I don't recall this specific example being available to the public since '97. If anything, this hobby has forced me to be a patient man.

That’s simply an amazing bottle. Any thoughts on value -beyond it’s real value of its presence! That one is just pure Art- I’d love to photograph that. Thank you for sharing-( should there be some kind of age group rating on this thread?!)
