I love old bottles and collect several types. When they were hand made they were not uniformly made so the uneven bottom is not uncommon for that era. It looks alot like hand blown glass. How old it is I wouldn't know. It could more new than you think. Blowing glass is still a large industry. But I think that is my opinion of what it is. However I could be wrong.
For one thing the glass is sort of thick and doesn't appear to have any seams. Which makes me think it is older. If you see seams it means it was not hand blown but made by machine.
K are there any markings on it anywhere? There might be some small insignia that might be a clue as to where it was made or who the artist was.
