Two Great Days at a 1700s Permission While On Spring Break! Pontil Puff!

[CanadianBottles]

Thanks! The teal one is smelling salts. The one with the bird on it is what I believe to be an ornate jar that would have had a lid? That bottle is just an early med produced by flint glass probably 1860s-1870s. That sign was actually found on a separate dig, pretty roached out, but still cool. I'm gonna sponge clean it this summer and then mount it to a piece of wood to preserve it better:

I just realized that I got flint glass confused with lead glass. That indentation on the base got me thinking of polished pontils and I was thinking you had found a med made out of crystal.

Thank you! I could just watch that forever! The next best thing to getting dirt under my nails. You found some nice stuff, too. I really like the green one. Kat >^..^<
