Title: ID help please on bottle shaped vase/bottle
Post by: vanmann on June 20, 2012, 12:30:30 PM

Any thoughts please on this . Is it a bottle shaped vase or just an empty bottle? 27Cms  x14 Cms. I thought it looked vaguely familiar but can't place it. Thanks John

Your welcome, I think your bottle would also have had a similar stopper at one point similar to the one in the above link, although stoppers do have a habit of going astray unfortunately!
