    This is a pair of beautiful 16" tall Demijohn bottles with bubbles, swirls and applied tapered collar, lip or finish. "This finish is probably most often seen on soda/mineral water and beer/ale bottles made in the 1840s and 1850s."
    This is a BIMAL - "Acronym for Blown in Mold, Applied Lip bottle."
    The bottle shoulder measures about 8" wide.
    When I flipped them over, I was expecting to see a pontil mark on the base but these bottles are (not pontiled).
    Please correct me if I have incorrectly identified any parts of these bottles, as I am still learning.
    I am still trying to figure out the approximate age.
