The form is characteristic of 19th- to early 20th-century French glassmaking, with a rounded, bulbous body tapering to a narrow neck finished with an applied collar rim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glass is a deep olive-green, semi-transparent, with visible air bubbles, inclusions, and surface irregularities throughout the body and neck -- all consistent with hand-blown production rather than machine manufacture. The shoulder and neck show natural flow lines in the glass. The rim is rough and uneven with remnants of an old wax or resin seal still present around the collar, indicating the bottle was used and sealed at some point. One small dark inclusion is visible mid-body. The base shows a classic hand-blown pontil mark with concentric swirl lines. No cracks or chips are visible on the body; the rim shows minor roughness consistent with age and use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bottle measures approximately 26cm wide x 38cm tall \/ 10.2\" wide x 15.0\" tall. These dimensions place it in the mid-size range for a Dame Jeanne, capable of holding an estimated 15 to 20 litres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis French demijohn green glass bottle works well as a decorative object in interior settings -- placed on a shelf, sideboard or floor as an architectural accent. It is also sought after by collectors of antique French glassware and wine-related objects. The hand-blown character and olive-green tint make it a distinctive period piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e95% of my items are tariff-free to the US.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-optimised --\u003e\n\u003c!-- fmf-shopify --\u003e","brand":"Fleamarketfrance","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57691387822424,"sku":"224670924418_ECB8_68E0_C058","price":177.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/5776\/2392\/files\/57_34cc0485-e548-44dd-9fd2-24c7fdfd5127.jpg?v=1783777358","url":"https:\/\/fleamarketfrance.com\/products\/french-demijohn-green-glass-bottle-1107264","provider":"Fleamarketfrance","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
