Topic: Mold blown glass bottle w/ turned rim

[dorian_graye]

I'm wanting to purchase this bottle, but I thought I would post it here to see if anyone had any ideas about it's maker or date.  For some reason, I have it in my head that it might be 19th century.  It sort of reminds me of Stiegel glass, though I am quite sure it isn't.  The color may make it mid 20th century.  I don't know, but it intrigues me.

Obviously meant to represent a Pineapple!  No idea as to maker.

dg — Much as I appreciate and applaud your use of a coin as a scale indicator in your photograph, I respectfully suggest that on an international forum it's not much help unless you tell us its diameter!   Also you don't reveal your country, which makes it even more difficult.

The most useful coin I know for this purpose is the old British ½d (halfpenny), which is exactly 1" (one inch) across, but you have to say as this is only generally known to Brits over the age of about 60.   What I would like to obtain and use is one of those photographic scale rulers that you see used in old archaeological reports which show both centimetres and inches as alternate black and white squares — but I've never seen one for sale.

Find the seam on the bottle and see how far it extends upwards. I am sure it reaches and extends over the lip, which makes it a bottle 20th or 21st century. Also, allow us a peek at the underside - it helps enormously in determining the produce.
