What is a Demijohn bottle?
1 Answer
A demijohn bottle is a rigid container that holds 4 to 60 liters of liquid (1 to 16 US gal).

The term demijohn is said to have French origins and refers to any large, narrow-necked bottle used to hold liquid. Shop a range of antique and vintage demijohn bottles on 1stDibs.
