Description from the seller

For me, this bottle is a top find; these types of bottles are among the earliest in their kind in terms of shape. Due to the different acids in the soil or the formation of pearly material in the water, a beautiful patina or color palette develops—ranging from oxidized oil-like colors to turtle shell-like patterns.

Very beautiful patinated belly flask, known locally as 'kattenkop' or in English as 'onion bottle,' 18 cm high, 13 cm in diameter.

If you have questions about the bottles or jugs I offer or if you have glass or pottery for restoration, do not hesitate to contact me; the platform plays no further role in this.

The supplier guarantees that he has obtained this lot legally.
The seller guarantees that he is authorized to send this lot. He will ensure that any permits required for the shipment of this lot are arranged. If this takes more than a few days, he will inform the buyer in a timely manner.
