About the Item

This very large and substantial antique wine bottle's exact origins are unknown, but it is presumed to be English or possibly Dutch and dating from the early 1700's. The bottle was hand blown and formed and uses a very thick deep olive green glass. The slightly bent neck has a very thick stem and top which leads to a large bulbous or flask shaped base. The front and back sides have been slightly flattened which was likely done for packing and stability during shipping. The capacity of this bottle has not been tested, but presumed to be in the 2 Imperial gallon range and we have used a vintage standard wine bottle and pop can for scale.
