Antique 19th Century Brown French Wine Demijohn Bottle Hand Blown pontil base

Antique, late 19th century, large brown hand blown glass Wine Bottle or Demijohn. As with true hand blown vessels for commercial or practical use, this one has a large, untreated pontil base and bubbles in the glass, slightly irregular shape and an applied glass wrap around the top opening for securing a metal foil over the cork stopper for secure transport. This heavy bottle weighs a hefty 6lbs, 4 oz. The bottle measures 20” high and is 8” in diameter at its widest point and 7” across the base. The top opening is 15/16” across. Found lined with dry wine sediments on the inside walls and fully cleaned to be ready to use as a decorative piece, as a vase or to fashion into a rustic table lamp.
