I'm not kidding when I tell you that this bottle was a find, I actually found it in the dirt on my sister's farm ,It looked pretty old to me ,but I'm not a glass expert and I'd like to know what those who are think ,the glass is quite thick and the lower body has dimples in the glass and the color is kind of amber and dark in places and kind of greenish in others and it smelled like oil.
