All of these bottles look to be very new new me.  Making me question the application of the import/export wax seals..

Stay away.. I think they are screaming 'fake(d)'.  The tops are not old enough to belong to a very old imported bottle, AND I dont think they applied wax seals on imports in the 18xxs anymore, but of this I can not be sure. And yes, the material is of a common agate for most of the stone type bottles.   Also notice, he/she does not show the tops or spoons
