Away on short vacation. Saw this. Appears to be a pontil? What was it used for? And is it worth $25? Urgently need your advice. Leaving area Wednesday morning. Thanks

Probably European. Likely something like olive oil. Not worth $25.

The only thing going for that bottle is the color. Collectors like color, blue, green, amber, etc.Anything but aqua. However it still doesn't make the bottle desirable to most experienced collectors. Also, generally collector forums usually discourage evaluating bottles.

I suppose it's 'worth' it if you like it $25 'worth'.
It's probably 'worth' a thousand if you like it that much.
Or are you in need of reassurance because you're planning to resell?
