Description

This is for a tall European Antique, Hand Blown, very dark green Demijohn Wine Bottle. This is appx 17 1/8 inches tall. Bottom diameter of 7 3/8 inches. Maybe a hair over. Im not going to guess at age or maker. I purchased this from Europe is all I can definitely tell you. There is residue within bottle.I  am aware with antique bottles remaining residue to some can bring value down but to me this shows true authenticity to piece also.  This piece is old. Very large and deeper pontil on bottom of bottle. Theres no damage to piece. Theres one scuff mark, appears white at bottom. See photo. I think I did this either displaying in my group I had or while as been sitting in storage room sitting side by side with other glass items. Not a crack.. I have never attempted to remove or tried to clean the inside of bottle.. Up to new owner to do as wish.  Im also going to mention for buyers awareness. If you look closely at the bottom pontil. There is a area where glass is  thicker, chunk like. It shows as a lighter area on bottom. This is from hand turning overlap during making from rod being pulled out. It left a small area within it that came to a point. It is  SHARP. The area was not turned over or smoothed out so to say.. Not a break or chip area. Be aware while handling at bottom or cleaning/dusting. Please see all photos as are part of this description. Ask all questions prior to purchase as sale is final with no returns. Be aware - none of the stems are included. Thank you for stopping and looking. 2 ship options or local pickup.
