creeper, I will not be overjoyed by anything negative. I think the piece looks good. It has good wear on the base. I said it looks too good to be true meaning not very old. Many pieces like this were blown in the early 20th, pontil, sheared lip, outrageous color, the whole kit and kaboodle. Precious few if any were blown even in the 18th century, or even 19th cent. Especially in that stupendous color. The color is key here. If it's an early 1800/late 1700, its a knock-out punch in the bottle world. It needs to be seen by Hecklers, they are experts. If it's anywhere from say 1790 to 1865, expect $2000 to $4000 if attic quality. Best regards to all....
