Description
GREENBRIER, VIRGINIA (NOW WEST VIRGINIA) WHITE SULPHUR MINERAL WATER BOTTLE, teal green, quart size, embossed "WHITE SULPHUR / WATER, / GREENBRIER, VA", with applied taper top, smooth base. Circa 1860. 8 3/4" H.Â
Catalogue Note: This pre-statehood West Virginia mineral water is much tougher to find than its later "W. VA." embossed counterpart, examples of which we have sold in the past. Its whittled texture and bold embossing make it a very nice example.
Provenance:
Collection of the late Al and Billy Steidel, Alexandria, VA.
Condition
Excellent condition with moderate ground wear/pitting and etching to surface, having a light mineral stain; one shallow 1/4" flake at lip. Two 3/16" parallel annealing lines within base at underside, as made.
