Dear Adrian,

I did notice the red color on your bottle are on the surface, not mixed with the other colors which you might be right about it not being swirled glass bottle .

But I am still not convinced that it being a realgar bottle, I would love to see the  description of catalogue re another similar bottle you have seen.

If you take a look of the mouth of my realgar bottle, you can see all realgar bottles belongs swirled glass bottle.
Best,

Steven
