Rare A. F. Boonikamp Antwerpen Ladies Leg Bitters Bottle

Description

An original, rare, late 19th century blown in mold with applied ring top amber ladies leg shaped bottle which is embossed in a circle at the shoulder A. F. Boonikamp Antwerpen around a Jewish Star Of David. I can find no reference of any kind to this bottle but its shape suggests it was used for bitters and despite the Belgium place name on it the bottle has all the characteristics of having been blown in the United States. Bottle stands approximately 12 1/4" tall and is a medium to light amber in coloration. Condition - a very faint band of haze on the interior and a couple really tiny pin point size nicks on the top rim mentioned only for total accuracy. A rare bottle which I believe is a bitters. Bottle is completely fresh to the market from a old estate.
