Stoneware bottle

A real antique or a reproduction? It's just over 8.5" tall, glazed in 2-tone earth colors. No markings.

I would think that it is real...although not worth a great amount.
Here's one where the seller has added some historical information:

That bottle is very similar, but the top on mine is slightly different - good ballpark value, though. Thanks.
