This bottle was my mother's (I gave it to my oldest son) For years Robbin's Hunter, a huge collector here (his house is now a museum) dogged my mother for this bottle. She didn't know what it was, but knew if Robbin's wanted it, it had to be something special. I don't know if it is or not, but she but the fear of God in me if I touched it. Even today I'm scared to death I'm going to break it! I have no clue what it is, there are no marks, but it looks like it could of been hand blown.
Looks handblown to me. It's very pretty.... love the color!
And it looks like a ground bottom. I have never handled anything so carefully in my life. I'm looking forward to my oldest settling down and taking it with him
LOL I know what you mean.... I have a few things that if I dropped I'd never get over it!
I'm pretty sure the off center round mark is from being hand blown. I wish my Mother would of asked Robbins about it. She knew him well enough he might not of wanted to tell her in fear of never getting it. Usually when he wanted something he got it.
yes hand blow
i had a few of these and broke them
Look up Antique Barber Vase, some go for a lot of $
