Historical information

The bottle probably dates from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. Bullet shaped bottles were designed to lie on their sides so that the cork was kept wet when in storage, which maintained the seal. They were often used for aerated drinks, and the shape helped to distribute the pressure and prevent breakage.

Physical description
