smiths green mountain renovator * 1898 -st albans ,vt -by the st albans vt remedy company --also made from the 1850's by silas smith (until 1881) and later his son --out of east Georgia , VT. -- his son sold the right to it in 1888 to the remedy company -- 71/2 and 8 1/2 sizes were made..

by the bottle top designs looks to about 1880 to turn of the century era mostly

The one that says "Rochester" is a Warner's Safe Cure. The green one with the "ER'S" looks a lot like a Carter's master ink.

I personally think that old broken bottle neck and lip "finishes" are so underrated. I want to gather all of mine and grind off the jagged shoulders and fill a large 3 gallon clear jar with them like some do with seashells and wine bottle corks. So many different colors, sizes and finishes. I will probably never get around to doing it though. It would make a great conversation-conservation piece.

glassman if i was diggin shards like that I would probably never stop until the whole lot was dug up proper. I like the cobalt in the center.

Looks like the top of a nice mineral water at lower right. Any chance you can find whole ones?

The square teal could be a boot black or stove black. I say this stuff could be in the 70's perhaps.

As for shards I cut them with a diamond coated bit to make beads and rings. What I need now
is a way to polish the dull away.
