Dr. J C B Siegert & Hijos Angostura Bitters Olive Green Glass Bottle

This antique glass bottle is from the late 1880s or early 1900s and would make an interesting addition to your bar or home decor.

The olive green bottle has ‘Dr. J C B Siegert & Hijos’ embossed around the shoulder and bottom of the bottle and is approximately 8 ⅜” tall and 2 ⅜” wide.
It was made in a mold and has an applied lip. The lip is uneven but is smooth and I think the unevenness was introduced when it was made. I am not sure if there is a chip in the inner edge or if that is another imperfection introduced during the manufacturing process. There is some residue on the outside edge which adds to the character of the bottle.

From the www.angosturabitters.com website: “By 1875 the family business moved to Trinidad and was run by Carlos, Alfredo and Luis Siegert, sons of Dr. Siegert, under the name J.G.B Siegert & Hijos. …By 1912, the partnership of J.G.B Siegert & Hijos was converted into a public limited liability company registered in England.“
