Neck fragment from perfume (?) bottk-. Pale blue-green glass; lip slightly thickened but not everted. A .series of striations towards the lower edge of the fragment are comparable to those on the neck of a bottle of similar glass found in a sealed deposit in VV'illiamsburg. The latter bottle ( ) has an oval body and conical base, both decorated with molded vertical ribbing; the neck possesses the same striations at the top of the ribs but is tooled outwards at the mouth to provide a flaring lip. It is suggested that the mouth of the Rosewell item would have been the same had it been tooled, thus expanding and, at the same time, thinning the wall. In consequence a conjectural reconstruction has been indicated, using this neck atop the Wil- liamsburg body, which comes from a sealed deposit with a terminal date of about 1745. A2. 12.
