Green and Cream Owl Bottle

Description

At the turn of the nineteenth century, the shop of master potter, Rudolph Christ, began making press-molded bottles.  The bottles came in many forms including owls and chickens.  The owl bottles were probably made in imitation of similar bottles made in Staffordshire, England.  Similar press-molded bottles were made in Salem throughout the nineteenth century by Christ’s successors as well.  Our noble Owl with green and cream glazes measures approximately 6″ high x 2.5″ wide.  Created using only lead-free glazes.  Your owl will arrive with a “Handcrafted Salem 1766” tag and packed in a kraft gift box.
