EDITED since I was wrong about some info. And still might be. lol.
Here are the best 3 I found today. The Chinese soy sauce jug is the third one I have found. The tall one has a push up base and only 2 vortices seams meeting a horizontal seam in the outside of the base. No other lines of any kind and it is hand finished. The third is a BIM also. I believe it’s a 3 piece mold. With the horizontal seam at the shoulder and verticals seams going up from there with a hand made finish. That’s all I have been able to learn about these 2 bottles.

Big glass one is neat, that's gotta pre-date the others by quite a bit I'd guess?

It’s looking like the squatty green one is the oldest. Probably by quite a bit because the finish is so rough on it. Unfortunately, when I read about the molds, I find excuses for all of the bottles I find to be dated between 1900-1930, since almost all types of molds were used up until 1900. (From what I’ve read)
