Marcos,

A very nice dragon bottle and I would have dated it the same as Joey; likely the last quarter of the 19th century and could go into the 1st quarter of the 20th.  An interesting dragon design in the your looking up at the throat and bottom jaw of the dragon emerging from the waves.  This is somewhat of an atypical perspective and to date I've only seen one to two bottles showing a dragon at this angle.  

Thanks for sharing this one.  Charll
