Description: A 10" tall beautiful BLACK GLASS or DEEP OLIVE GREEN colored cylinder-shaped antique WINE bottle. What makes this bottle so unique is that it has a beautifully FLORA or FOLIAGE design with VINES, FLOWERS, and GRAIN, that contrasts very well with the DEEP GREEN COLORED glass! This is a very early hand Blown Into Mold bottle (BIM) with a tooled top, dating it well back into the late 1800's. Condition: The bottle is in overall EXCELLENT condition. It has typical wear; scratching scuffs type and the usual trace of content haze, that's it. NO cracks, chips, dings, damage, etc. PLEASE see pictures for better idea of overall condition. Age: An early hand-blown bottle (Blown-In-Mold = BIM ) with a tooled top, ca. late 1800's. Shipping: All DOMESTIC shipping charges INCLUDE insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do NOT insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time. IMPORTANT NOTE: If our shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what YOU pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the ACTUAL shipping costs! This is especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are rough estimates. How do we know this is an Asian bottle? It was excavated by a construction company on the old west side of Kalispell, Montana, and the west side of town had a considerable Asian community there in the 1800's. Along with this bottle were found many of the Tiger Whiskey pottery vases along with many other Asian pottery vessels and bottles. A track hoe had broke into a 19th Century Asian privy and with a few scoops had all of this laid out where, fortunately, we had permission to pick through, and rescued all of it from being completely destroyed, as was most of the items that had been in the privy before the track hoe crashed through it. Anyway, this bottle was amongst all the pottery and rubble. It is an early turn mold bottle with gives it a very nice luster and really contrasts with the white/grayish colored etched foliage, just beauteous, check it out!
