Hi, Not real sure exactly when it was made, but it is similar to bottles made right around 1890's, 1900's. It's probably a common kitchen bottle. Could have had some pickling of some kin. Lots of items were jar'd like olives, pickles, etc.. Most bottles without any writing (embossing) are not worth much during that time period. But a good find anyways. I'd keep poking around for the older ones.

kind hard to tell from the pics standing up it looks like its 12" atleast and looking inside it laying down it makes it look 5-8 inches
