    This is a rather strange one to me. The bottle is about 19 ½ inches tall, weight is about 5 ¼ pounds. The bottle and stopper are completely hollow inside. Any clues on this thing? Old? New?

    It's attractive...but seems to be decorative only from the look of its interior.

    I agree, made to be decorative. The lions face should show similar tainting as the rest of the bottle if it was naturally aged, not the perfectly raise contrast. But a beautiful piece
