How to Tell the Age of a Bottle: Lips

Beginning collectors often wonder how to tell the age of a particular bottle.One of the ost iportant clues to the age of a

bottle is the st!le of the lip. In the picture below are shown a nuber of lip st!les coon during the last centur!.

Lips of Nineteenth Century Bottles

All of the abo"e lips were applied to the nec# of the bottle after it was reo"ed fro the old. A hot piece of glass wasapplied to the nec# and then hand tooled to the proper shape. The lips of bottles ade before $%&' were often crudel!

applied and careful e(aination shows these irregularities. Soetie around $%%' it becae coon practice to tool the

lips with a lipping tool) an ob*ect which fit one piece into the opening of the nec# while two other pieces claped on theoutside of the applied band of glass. Then with a twisting otion) the top was uniforl! shaped. Bottles produced during

the last twent! !ears of the last centur! will show e"idence of this twisting otion which left faint concentric rings around

the outh and upper part of the nec#. This otion also erased the old sea in the process. This is shown in the picturebelow on a bottle ade soetie between $%+' and $+$'. The lip) a round band) was finished with a lipping tool which

erased the old sea and left its tell tale concentric rings. Earlier bottles) those ade before $%&') will not show theserings and lip a! be ore crudel! applied with soe dripp! areas under the applied band. ,hen the old sea stops

before the top of the bottle then the bottle is said to ha"e been hand finished..

How to Tell the Age of a Bottle: Bases

Loo#ing at the base of a bottle is also helpful in deterining the age. -ost bottles ade

before $%% will ha"e a /pontil/ ar#. This ar# was left when the /punt! rod/ was

snapped off the botto of the bottle. The punt! rod was used to hold the hot bottle whilethe lip was fored and finished. The punt! rod was dipped into hot glass and attached to

the base of the bottle b! one of the helpers. The glassblower then fored the lip in the

appropriate st!le and the punt! rod was bro#en off. In the picture are saples of the ost

coon t!pes of /pontil ar#s/. Larger bottles and especiall! soda bottles ade between$%0' and $% ha"e pontil ar#s. -ost bottles dating before $% will ha"e an open pontil.

There are se"eral t!pes of open or pontil ar#s but the #e! is the presence of a rough area

on the base.

The practice of using pri"ate olds becae popular around of the iddle of the nineteenth centur!. These old were

ordered fro the glass factories b!edicineanufacturers)soda and ineralwater bottles and anufacturers of other

household goods. 1ri"ate olds could be had with ebossing or for bottles of unusual design. Ebossed bottles becaecoonplace.

Soetie around $% a tool called a snap case was in"ented which allowed the glassblower to hold the bottle forfinishing without using a punt! rod. the snap case left no ar#s and ore iportantl! no pontil. -olds were designed

As old a#ing technolog! progressed the sea across the base of the bottle disappeared.

Ebossed bases becae ore coon and other ar#ings began to appear on bottle bases

such as initials for the glass wor#s producing the bottles. 4or the period fro $%&'2$+$'bottles had hand tooled lips and sooth bases. Then in $%+5 a sei2autoatic bottleachine was in"ented. ,ith this achine the entire lip was olded along with the bod! of

the bottle and the need for hand finishing disappeared. Earl! achine ade bottles carr! a
