This bottle came from a fellow who built a large collection from local privy digs. It seems to have a very faint seam line up one side that stops at the neck. There are lots of bubbles in the glass and it is not perfectly symetrical. The large top rim reminds me of a decanter and there is a slight depression in the sides. It is 6 1/4" tall, 6 1/2" wide and 2 3/4" across the bottom. The neck to the top of the rim is 2 3/4".

That is a gorgeous bottle!

I don't know much about glass but there is plenty of info on the net. You might consider posting it in the T-net Bottle forum way down the forum page.
