This is a beautiful authentic antique onion shape Ambre Demijohn, circa 1890-1940.
We can see two seams that show it was hand-blown in mould. It has little imperfections and a beautiful ambre colour. We can read on the lip 5L (for 5 liters), and underneath 5L SR and others letters which are not clear as it looks like ther was a pontil scar as well.
It is a lovely Demijohn.
Unique Piece.
