This is a beautiful authentic antique globular green Demijohn, circa 1840-1890.
We can see two seams that stopped at half the bottle then continue horizontally, showing it was handblown, the air bubbles trapped within its surface attest it.
The neck has a hand serpentine applied ring circling the mouth and the lip is not smooth showing how it was broken off from the rod after being blown.

“Demijohn” is an old word that formerly referred to any glass vessel with a large body and small neck, enclosed in wickerwork. In France, Demijohn is called “Dame Jeanne”, literally “Lady Jane”.
