    Spotted deer with tree branch looking horns on each face of this bottle.
    The deer appears to be eating grass though it kind of makes it look like he has whiskers! haha

    The sides feature a flowering scroll on a yellow ground.

    Reign mark in black on the bottom. You can also see where there's a chip in the enamel near the base. A lovely brass top!

    Rather small at 4.8cm high

      Haha oldbodie - I feel like I know nuttin all the time about these bottles! Just when I think I know, I find out I'm wrong! There are just so many really good fakes out there. That's why I'm careful to not put an age on any of the bottles. But I can tell you that I do my best to try to buy geniune bottles!
