vintage 10 x 2+ Dark olive green . In great condition. This is an antique or vintage dark green glass wine bottle, likely dating from the mid-to-late 19th century (circa 1870s–1880s). It features a classic Burgundy shape characterized by sloping shoulders and an indented push-up base (known as a punt). Bottles of this type were frequently used for aging wine, cider, or spirits.Key CharacteristicsManufacturing Method: The visual texture suggests it was mold-blown. You can check for a faint seam running up the sides of the body, which often stops right at the lower neck or collar on pieces from this era.The Lip/Collar: The top features an applied blob or ring collar. This thick band of glass below the rim was designed to provide structural reinforcement so that wires or twine holding down a cork wouldn't crack the neck.Glass Color: Often called "black glass" or deep olive/forest green, this intense coloration was intentionally achieved by adding iron and manganese to protect the liquid contents from harmful light damage during cellar storage.
