Found another pic of this bottle from when I first got it. I actually took this pic with my cell phone and it didn't come out too bad. I would like to get some more like this in other colors but its rare to find one affordable.

Antique Green Glass with Silver Overlay Perfume Bottle
What we have here is one of my favorites. It has my favorite color (green) and is a small bottle on top of that. The silver overlay just makes it that much nicer. This is a perfume bottle and I believe it is from the mid to late 1800s based on some of the research I have done. I am not an expert though so if you know better please let me know, I'm still learning. I had one that was a little bigger then this one. It was a black bottle when I bought it online (due to being dirty and tarnished), and when I got it didn't know exactly what it was. Cleaned it up, did a little research and was surprised at what it was. I did keep it for awhile but did eventually sell it. I didn't want to get rid of it but when I saw what it was going to sell for I had no problem ha ha.
So I was pretty happy when I saw this one for sale since I did want to replace the one I used to have. Especially at the price that was being asked. I think I like this one a little more since it is actually smaller. I added my fingers and a dollar bill in a couple of the pics below to show the size better. I tried to get decent pics but the lighting was not what I wanted, but still not bad. Enjoy!
