ITEM 2928. MAGNUM-SIZED WHISKEY OR WINE BOTTLE, brilliant golden amber, three-piece mold cylinder, iron pontil scar, 10 3/4"H x 3 7/8"D, applied sloping collar, a mint bottle with several pinhead-sized spots of lip edge roughness. Probably blown at a Stoddard Glass Works, Stoddard, NH, 1830-1850.

We have bought and sold at least a dozen of these Stoddard-type magnum bottles but NONE could hold a candle to this extra-crude and beautifully colored example. The bottle is overflowing with whittle marks and when displayed in natural light, the sunshine plays beautifully with the wonderfully crude, heavily textured glass. If you are going to own a Stoddard magnum, this is THE ONE!!!
