Rare Baltimore Glassworks Lager Shaped Unembossed Iron Pontiled Soda C.1850s

Rare green color unembossed blank squat soda bottle in an unusual tall skinny lager shape. Iron pontiled base with applied blob type lip. Circa 1850s. This is a rare example of this particular mold of unembossed pontiled soda attributed to having been blown at a Baltimore Glassworks during the 1850s. There are several embossed sodas of this same shape from Baltimore and these blank example turn up on rare occasion in Baltimore privies. I have only seen 3 examples of this rare bottle, the last to sell was almost 15 years ago.

The last picture shows this bottle next to a normal shape squat soda for comparison. You are only bidding on the bottle on the right.

Dug with overall patchy iridescent staining but no chips or cracks.

Measures approximately 2 1/2 inch wide x 8 inches tall.

This is an antique and may have small in manufacture defects that do not affect the display of the piece.
