Sure Would Like to Find one Like this Whole.

(1/1)

BitburgAggie_7377:
 Here is another of my Labor Day marathon weekend finds.  I know this is only a small fragment, but I sure would like to find a whole one....even if only to be able to figure out exactly what kind of bottle it was.   No marks remaining on the bottom, which appears to be slightly rounded.

The point behind the rounded bottom was to ensure that the bottle was left on its side so that the wired down cork would not dry out and shrink allowing the contents to loose carbonation and/or evaporate

Thanks, seldom.   I figured it was something like that.  The only thing bothering me is this seems to be from a small bottle.   The outside diameter is only about 1 1/2 inches.

Take a look at a chapagne bottle.
They have not changed in 100+ years.
See if you see any simularities.

Champagne is the first thing I thought of, but I don't think that works.

Problem with it being a champagne bottle are:  1) based on what I have, it is too small even to be a single serving bottle.   The outer diameter is only    about 1.5 inches.
                                                                  2) while the inside raised part looks like a champagne bottle, there is no corresponding bottom depression...just a rounded base.


I think a carbonated liquid of some sort is a possibility though.
