Flask???
This bottle came from an estate that is loaded with 1800's glass and pottery. I can't really describe it so I'll let the pics do the talking. The only thing I can say about it is on its flaws. It has a minor lip chip, what appears to be to open bubbles on the side and two flea bites out of the back. It has one spot with some contamination that has 3 or 4 small cracks stemming from it. The cracks are all on the inside and can't be felt from the outside. I can't stick my finger far enough into the bottle to see if the cracks can be felt from the inside. The cracks are clear from manufacture's error. Its a nice dark cobalt and the glass is intentionally wavy. It appears to be a sheared lip that was heat treated to do away with the sharp edges and its pontilled. The pontil looks like a ground down and semi-melted glass ring that is an inch round. Now for the part I can't describe, The shape. Thanx for looking, Jason
