ITEM 4008. "RUSSIAN - IMPERIAL - TONIC BITTERS", (Ring# R133), brilliant aquamarine, square with roped corners, early smooth base, 9 3/4"H, applied sloping collar, about mint (pinhead-sized stone in label panel with several 1/16" legs). American, 1870-1880, very rare.

This bright, crisp and pleasantly crude roped-corner bitters bottle is as fine an example as we have ever seen offered.
