Antique Clear Glass Apothecary Bottle - Small Vintage Medicine Vial
Small antique clear glass bottle, likely a pharmacy or apothecary vial from the late 19th to early 20th century. The bottle features a classic cylindrical body with gently sloped shoulders, a narrow neck, and a rolled lip finish typical of hand-finished or early machine-made glass. The base has a distinct push-up or kickup pontil-style center, which is a hallmark of older glass production. No embossing or labels are visible on any surface. Approximate height is 3.5 to 4 inches based on hand scale, with a diameter of roughly 1.5 inches. The glass has a faint pinkish or lavender tint, consistent with sun-purpled or solarized manganese glass, a natural aging effect common in bottles made before roughly 1915. Condition shows honest age-related wear including surface scratches, light dirt and grime in crevices, and some mineral clouding or haze on the exterior. No cracks or chips are visible. An attractive, display-ready piece for bottle collectors or vintage home decor enthusiasts.
