Need help identifying unique triangular D. S. Co. bottle from England

SVFehrSVFehr
in Question and Answer

BOTTLE - 2 sides are flat, one side is rounded so four placed together would form a circle.

Color - aqua tint

Bottom - REGISTERED 1904 D. S. CO.

Two seams almost to the lip

STOPPER - green tinted glass

Embossed LEA & PERRINS

Rough tip

The lady who sold it to me said it was a medicine bottle from England.

I would like to know what kind of bottle it is and its approximate age.

    Thanks for posting.


    In that Lea & Perrins is a British company, I would say yes the stopper is English. However, the stopper was not originally used in this bottle. I am inclined to say the bottle is American and may very well be a medicine bottle. The shape is indeed unusual.


    Getting more info on the bottle means finding a labeled example..

    I have reconsidered the origin of the bottle. Am now thinking it could very well be English. I stand by my statement that the stopper does not belong to this bottle


    Below is a photo of the correct bottle with stopper found at https://www.flyingtigerantiques.com/wonderful-1890s-lea-perrins-worcestershire-sauce-bottle-with-top-original-label.html


    Note the cork liner between the stopper and the bottle neck.

    Thanks Chris. The cork liner is very interesting.


    I still need help identifying the bottle.
