Ok, Not to sure about this one. Seems that most of what I have read indicates that bottles made prior to 1915 will turn purple if left in the sun?? Is this true?? If so, how long does this take?? Seen some beautiful hutch type bottles that are a wonderful purple. Is this a glass color, sun coloring, or combination of both?? Seem the purple bottles not only look better but in addition they seem to bring a higher price tag?? Thanks for any and all help and guidance on this subject.
