Antique JM Oliver & Sons Green Glass Olive Oil Bottle

Description

Description
: An antique, hand-blown glass bottle in a muddy olive green color. It's got a folded collar at the mouth and an applied label on the shoulder.
The label reads "J. M. OLIVER & SONS". Oliver was a major importer here in Philadelphia, at one point the biggest importer of olive oil into the United States. The bottle was made for them, here in the States, most likely for olive oil, based on the size (oil would have been imported in barrels and then broken down into smaller containers for retail).
Size
: 7.25" tall, 1.875" in diameter at the base.
Mark
: Applied label on shoulder.
Condition
: Mineral accretion to the back side and interior of neck of the bottle, suggesting it laid for a long time in a crawl space or similar, cool damp area where it was in contact with soil and water. Glass also has some crizzling to it.
Shipping weight is 1.0 lbs.  Shipping and insurance will be .35 to any street address in the Continental US.
We are always happy to combine shipping at actual cost.
