BOTTLES
H1989.1066.a-b
Two miniature, amethyst, glass bottles, each with two side seams and probably used for medicine. Neither has distinguishing lettering or marking but each has a masking tape label reading "D.D." a. Is bright and pure in colour with a thick base. There is an irregular shaped mark extending 3cm over the neck of the bottle and the glass contains some bubbles. b. Is lightly tinted rather than heavily coloured and has a more recessed base than b. The base is uneven as the glass is thicker and bulges on one side.
