Is this a Saratoga-type spring water? It’s dark olive green, applied lip, 8 1/2” x 4 1/2” x 2 3/4”. Any info and approximate value would be appreciated. Thanks.

This looks to me like a British liquor bottle of some sort. The top looks very British, and the texture of the glass has the look of what was typical of British glasshouses around the turn of the 20th century. It's not a form that I've ever seen before though, I'm assuming it's some proprietary design if that's the case. If I'm correct, value will be pretty minimal unfortunately. Not too much of a collector market for that sort of thing.

Thanks. Europian was my thought as well. I picked it up cheap at a flea market due to the applied lip. It will be available at the Shupp’s Grove show in July. Hope to see you there!

That type lip seems to be British and colonial typically. My money is on it being a scotch bottle but certainly a liquor of some sort.
