Like has already been said,, if seam extends all the way to top its a 20th century machine made bottle !!  Still haven`t found what was in it !!  That cork is not too common maybe we can add that to the search !!  Will look more !!

i will assume that this bottle is in the UK,..is the top made of porcelain with a thread, or of a black bakelite type material,..early lemonade/beer  bottles, circa 1800,s had a marble stopper,this one is a lot younger...
I make no excuses,and no apologies....but i like a good Malt,
