Hi All,

I have read, with great interest, 17 posts on this thread so far, all concentrating on provenance and technical aspects of the engraving.

No one has yet offered to translate the inscriptions! We are jumping the gun here. There are likely to be good clues as to dating within the content of the inscription.

Tom
PS: Pat, it's a great looking bottle, whatever the age. Congrats!
