Five olive green case gin bottles with a square tapered body and four dots on base.<\/p>
Some of the earliest spirit bottles were square in cross section and generally designed to contain gin, though undoubtedly contained various types of alcohol and possibly wine. Commonly called \"case gin\" or \"taper gin\" bottles since they would pack more efficiently to a case (six to 24 bottles) than round bottles. Case gin bottles are square with a more or less distinct taper inwards from the shoulder to the base. The neck is very short to almost non-existent with the finishes varying from a laid-on ring, flared, mineral finish, oil, and even a blob. This shape and style of bottle originated, and was commonly made, in Europe at least as early as the mid-17th century (<\/span><\/span>https:\/\/sha.org\/bottle\/liquor.htm#CaseGinbottles<\/a> accessed October 2017). These examples do not exhibit the bevelled corners generally seen on bottles of the 1860s or later<\/span> and may therefore be earlier 19th century.<\/span><\/span><\/p>",
