If there is a slight tint of red....I think it is called rose glass because it is to light to be puce...Are you sure the tint of the glass is not a light purple? It may be a light amethyst?
The bottles value may increase depending on the color, but usually the value is determined more by the rarity.

Hi jwelton !
Can you post a pic of your color ? Natural sunlight pic would be the best. Artificial light tends to dull puce variants and make some of them look muddy brown. Your description could be any one of many color variants....Puce , Red amber , ect.
Reggie Lynch's website has some color examples that you might want to look at. Here's the link to his page of colors. http://www.antiquebottles.com/color/#examples
Hope this helps , Brian
