Title
A Post Medieval glass wine bottle dating from AD 1690-1700.
Description
English: A Post Medieval glass wine bottle dating from AD 1690-1700. The bottle free-blown and is 'onion' shaped. The base of the bottle has a kick-up to trap the sediment in the wine. The bulbous body of the bottle gradually expands to the curving shoulder. The neck gradually tapers to the rim which is partly broken, with only small part of the ribbed collar (string rim) remaining which is D-shaped in cross-section. This is an English style lip with applied string rim. Bottles of this date were sealed with a loose fitting wedge-shaped cork, tied down to the string rim, a ridged shaped band on the neck just below the lip (Hedges 1975:8). The rim has a diameter of 24.5mm. The neck is 25.5mm in height. The glass is a dark green and brown with frequent irregular air bubbles.

Dimensions: diameter: 129mm; height: 130mm; weight: 859g.

Similar bottles on the database are KENT-D30418 and BERK-D3B311.

These bottles, with the shorter neck and higher kicked-base, date from between c.1680 and about 1700 and were used for storing and transporting wine. After 1700, bottles slowly became taller and thinner, resembling the more modern wine bottle by the middle of the 18th century.
