Green bottle with stopper
« on: October 13, 2011, 08:34:20 PM »
This lovely green bottle has been in my little collection for a couple of years now - I would love to know what make it is if anyone out there could help

Sorry the photo isn't very good - I left it a little late to take the photo. The bottle is a lovely green grass colour



Many thanks in advance :X:

Looks like it might be recycled glass as it's looks as if it's got lots of bubbles in it.  A lot of recycled glass comes from Spain and Mexico I think, might be worth looking into.   :)

it does have lots of bubbles in it. I'll try and get some better photos on

Very interesting if its possibly from Spain or Mexico. I bought it from a little old british man who fancied himself as a dealer, I should have asked where he bought it from originally

Thanks very much
