It's a bottle and quite risky to purchase online as you cannot see how it is made, what the bottom looks like and where the seams go. So I guess you've done well not getting it.

I think your Okay too that you did not get.

Looks like a bottle that can be used for a candle holder too, IMHO.  Hard to say, and could have been mass -produced.  So I think you did okay missing out on it, IMHO

So have a cup  :t:  you can Relax!!  Ahhhhhh......
