    .
    THIS ONE HAS BEAUTIFUL PALE AMETHYST PURPLE COLOR GLASS, ….EMBOSSING IS CRISP, DOES  NEED A CLEANING ...BUT GLASS AND EMBOSSING ARE VERY NICE...
    The bottle is what I would call a pale purple colored glass, it stands about 4 3/4" tall  ...and it is a very nice specimen tiny flea bite on lip (see image 9 and 10) but  could be smoothed and blended...
    THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL BOTTLE
