Dear Rube,

Sorry for the confusion Wink Wink it could be the examples I provided.

The bottle you shared is a typical realgar bottle, both the combination of the colors and the bottle shape are all classical. I would date the bottle the same as the first two I shared at first place,1780-1860.

Best,

Steven
