Can anyone help me out with a rough date for this please, it's has a lovely ring, a polished pontil, no seeds and very little wear to the base. It's one of five i picked up today there all in the same as new condition.
It's 5 1/4 inches in height, 2 3/4 inches across the rim and 2 6/8th inches across the base, regards Chris.

Hi Chris - I think most collectors would disagree with you regarding your description - not what is usually referred to as Bristol green, which is normally much darker than this.
My opinion on date would be c. 1870 - 1880. And beyond that there is little to say - other than nice glass, and if you have five then great find. :)
