1800's Dr. Townsend's Sarsaparilla, Albany, Ny. Antique Bottle! Truly Stunning
MIND BLOWING OLDER 1800'S DR. TOWNSEND'S SARSAPARILLA, ALBANY NY. IT WILL BE HARD TO TOP THIS ONE!! IT IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TOWNSEND'S I HAVE EVER SEEN IN THIS COLOR!!! YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE HOW CRYSTAL CLEAR AND SHIMMERING THE GLASS IS! THE GLASS IS SO CRYSTAL CLEAR IT MAKES THE BOTTLE ALMOST LOOK IRIDESCENT!! Townsend's Sarsaparilla - Albany N. Bottle was blown in a mold and has a smooth base. I think it is an earlier bottle because the pontil area is very rough and may be a sand pontil. Also, the seam does not go through the center of the pontil area. This Townsend's is one of the most beautiful I have ever seen! It is a shimmering bright green color and is made of heavy glass! Besides a few extremely minor and barely visible age related scratches that didn't quite come out during the tumbling process (being super picky here), there is no damage what-so-ever! It has STRONG EMBOSSING which is unusual on these Townsend's! The glass is nicely whittled, it has a crudely applied lip that is a bit gloppy, there are a few small bubbles scattered throughout, the neck is slightly crooked, and the panels are somewhat collapsed, all of which give this Townsend's IMMENSE character!!! This Townsend's stands 9 1/2" tall and is 3" wide and deep. It is flawless with super smooth crystal clear glass inside and out! There is no damage what-so-ever and not a trace of haze!
It looks amazing in the sunlight as demonstrated in the photos! Beautiful Townsend's like this don't come up for sale that often.
If you have been thinking about owning one for a while, this might be the time! Add this "Top Shelf" bottle to your collection and you will be staring at it all day!!! The photos say it all!
