Final Bid
  Freeblown Demijohn, Continental, probably Germany, Black Forest Region, 1830 – 1850. Medium-to-deep olive amber, almost a yellowish ‘old amber’, cylindrical, funnel-type neck, sheared mouth with crudely applied string rim – blowpipe pontil scar, ht. 14 7/8”, virtually perfect; (some light, non-distracting, and almost certainly washable content residue). A very attractive and interesting demijohn, very similar to an example we sold in Auction #35. Fantastic condition, pleasing form and color.

Note; the sheared mouth and string rim are very crude with some glass slag and impurities adding nice character to this example.
 
1 $ 150
  Demijohn, New England, probably Westford Glass Works, Westford, CT, 1857 – 1873. Frothy, translucent, yellowish olive, cylindrical, 3-pc. mold, applied sloping collar – smooth base, ht. 11 3/8”, virtually perfect; (just a trace bit of light wear and some tiny, pinhead size or smaller, onionskin-thin open bubbles). Exceptional character, the glass is absolutely filled with tiny bubbles swirled through the entire bottle creating a frothy, translucent appearance.  
10 $ 700
