Long ago, but not very far away, our Fore-Fathers & Fore-Mothers liked to look and smell good too. And some flint pattern glass patterns were used for these purposes although not all of the glass was made in patterns we know and love.
        A book by Cecil Munsey "Collecting Bottles" suggests that apparently some fancy early barber bottles were given to patrons to take home and became dresser bottles.
