The term black glass refers to a group of early free blown bottles. These bottles are not actually black but rather range from olive green to dark brown.

Iron slag was added to the raw materials to produce the Olive green and dark colors collectively known as Black Glass. Its best to see these bottles true color by holding it up to a light source. Black glass bottles range in age from approximately 1690 to the 1860s. The dark color protected the bottles contents from harmful ultraviolet rays. Onion shaped bottles were made between 1690 and 1730.

Mallet and Bell shaped bottles were made between 1730 and 1770. Squat shaped bottles like this beauty were made between 1770 and the 1860s.
