Here's one that I finally put on the shelf after first seeing it about 30 years ago. Fairly rare, with a few examples out there, but I wanted this specific example. It's as crude as I've seen in any embossed mold blown bottle. No etching or staining. What you see is thousands of tiny bubbles giving it that appearance. Not an Indian artifact, but shows early America's fascination with native Americans and how proprietors exploited that interest to sell their product. Dates to the 1830s, possibly into the late 1820s.
