This bottle was made with a hand applied top having a fold in the glass and a 'runny' area of glass below it on the neck, stretch lines to the neck, a mottled effect to the glass, and some large and tiny entrapped air bubbles in the glass. It has a cone shaped kicked up 'bluish coloured' pontilled base having been hand blown on a glass blower's stick. The base has an angle to it causing the bottle to lean slightly, and the neck is slightly off centre to the bottle.

This bottle measures @ 26 cm tall, 9 cm in diameter, and weighs 735 grams.  

This bottle is in  ’VERY GOOD CONDITION'.  This bottle has a few scattered light scratches and contact marks mainly to the mid body on one side, and a little internal dirt remnants to one side of the body.  This bottle has NO CHIPS OR CRACKS and the glass retains ITS ORIGINAL SHINY LUSTRE!

Full cost of postage, packaging & handling to anywhere in Australia will be $17.95.
