Flea Market Find

Anyone give me some info on this. It is hand etched and pontilled. The piece on the shoulder is applied. I'm thinking it dates to 1860 or so. Maybe a back bar bottle? Maybe a bottle that would be from a soda fountain at an old store? It stands near 1 foot tall.

Looks like a fountain syrup bottle to me. Beautiful piece of glass. Would've had a metal cup also serving as a lid.

Thanks ya'll. I'll have to do some searching on Fountain Syrups.
