This is a real interesting bottle found at Goodwill. No chips or breaks, surprise! I have been searching to find some information based on the label but not much luck. It would help if I read Italian.

Have you tried an online translator ?
It reminds me of a bunch of bottles my Uncle had like this that held English Leather Cologne...not saying this is beleive me, but his were all different things like cars,animals and such. Just reminded me of them.
Hi and thanks for your questions.
Yes, it is Italian. I did try translators and then a web search. I could get to the area in Italy but that is about it. I think the the company or brand of cheery liquor is no longer available.
And for what came in it. Definitely liquor since it would hold a good amount of liquid. I have seen cologne bottles in animal shapes too but this would have been a life time supply of that sort of thing. This is more along the lines of a Jim Beam decanter.
