| Description : | A circular dark brown tinted soda-lime (or soda) glass two-piece metal mould blown (moulded glassware) beer bottle. The undersurface of the item exhibits a shallow concave basal profile, upon which 'W 450', 'S', '10', and 'UCB' all appear in embossed lettering. From the rounded heel, the body portion rises vertically to a champagne shoulder form. This extends upward into a tapered neck-finish area, which concludes with a crown finish. This in turn has a circular bore. Upon the body area of the item there has been affixed an oval shaped tan coloured paper label upon which 'GUINESS FOREIGN EXTRA STOUT' and 'ST. JAMES'S GATE DUBLIN' both appear in black print lettering along with additional manufacturer information. A trapazoid shape tan paper label has been affixed to the neck-finish area, and upon this information appears in both black and white print lettering. Note: Colouration is due to the addition of carbon or nickel to the silicate. The crown finish was invented in 1891 (patented 1892) by William Painter. It can be formed by either a finishing tool or a machine.PH1 2006 |
