Mid-Western Swirl Bottle? Is it antique?

patti

I am not a real collector but have always liked and picked up old bottles. I found this one yesterday and after researching a little, think it may be a mid-western swirl bottle? It measures 8 inches tall and is 4.25 inches across the front. Any information about it is appreciated.

Oh, I meant to say that it has 18 swirl lines. Thanks

Patti,
Welcome to the forum.

Yes, this is a real 19th century example, not a modern reproduction. These are fairly common in aqua but nonetheless are a great example of the American glassblowing trade
