    This dark amber bottle has been in the family for many years and was handed down to me from my grandfather. Looking for some thoughts on age and providence. Thanks for the help! image-15-04-20-04-21-2.jpeg.jpg image-15-04-20-04-21.jpeg.jpg image-15-04-20-04-21-1.jpeg.jpg

    That makes a lot of sense. My grandfather came to the United States from Italy in 1885. Probably was used as a wine bottle. Any idea how old?

    I'd be interested to know how they arrived at "Early Nineteenth-Century" as a date. Does the stopper of yours fit?

    @Shunkpenn looks mold blown With applied handle late 18th to early 19th. Don’t think the stopper is original to the piece most likely a cork stopper
