  • Condition: Here is a crude and bubbly medium blue green colored kidney shaped demijohn or utility bottle straight from some collapsed rubble in the corner of an old Ct barn in Naugatuck CT off Hunters Mountain road. It was wedged in soggy rotten timbers and had remnants of a wicker shell but it all fell apart because it was caked in wet and rotten wormy wood and had moss growing on it. It stands about 11 1/4" tall or so. It is filled with zillions of little bubbles and there are no chips or cracks and its very clean. A small surface scuff line or two on side that's mentioned for accuracy. Probably happened during the collapse or when I carefully pulled it loose from where it was wedged in the rubble. There is a big bubble inside with an open smaller bubble in it. I cant be sure if it the covering glass skin inside breached or it cooled this way and the other little bubble formed and dried up open. I don't think is a breach but offered as shown. Lip is crude too. See pics. Nice find for collectors

There is a big bubble inside with an open smaller bubble in it. I cant be sure if it is a portion of the covering glass skin of the large bubble inside that is breached or if it cooled this way and the other little bubble formed and dried up open. I don't think it's a breach but offered as shown. Lip is crude too. See pics. Nice find for collectors
