    Is it iridescent or is that just reflection?

    well im not that strong in bottles, but i have seen bottles in this style advertised as old wine bottles, with a heavy pricetag (in my opinion), being from the 1700's, however, there is a slight shape difference and the break-point of yours does make me question the age, i think if it is something like that, then probably 1800's :)

    Agreed. I know squat (or squatty) about old bottles, but can usually spot a Williamsburg piece a mile out.

    Yup, Williamsburg.

    It's a well executed repro of a colonial period, sealed onion bottle but new none the less.
