    I've had this bottle for years and would like to know more about it. It doesn't appear to be vaseline glass as it doesn't glow under UV light. It's blown glass, and I'm guessing mold blown due to the bottom. The glass is somewhat wavy and I think you can see that the flange lip is tooled. There's a ton of shelf wear on the bottom rim. It's also lightweight for its size, 9 1/4" tall with base diameter of 4 1/4".

    Any thoughts on origin, age, or maker?

    Thanks,
    Janice

    I don't know a thing about it, except that we had one almost the exact same shape, only orange, in the house in the late 60's early 70's ours had a cork "mushroom" shaped stopper.

    Thanks, Bdigger. Could be. I don't see any signs that it would have had a stopper--no inner edge, no marks, etc. A stopper would have to be quite large as the opening is almost 1 1/2" in diameter, so if there was one, cork bottom is certainly a possibility.
