Description: | Complete post medieval late17th-18th century glass bottle, AD1650-1800. Bottle is made of green glass, it has a squat cylindrical body and a long tapering neck, roughly the same length as the body. There is an angled flange just below the main rim of the bottle that has been chipped in places. There are also some small linear indentations in the rim perhaps where a lever has been used to prise out whatever was used to close the bottle. There is some marbling and patination on the surface of the bottle where the glass has begun to break down, this has led to one half of the outer surface taking on a sandy brown colouration. The base of the bottle has a deep indentation with some quite jagged glass within. The bottle is slightly assymetrical in shape suggesting a hand blown process.Height: 193mmWeight: 956gDiameter: 117.87mm
