Embossed Grolsch Style Swing-Top Glass Bottle

This is a tall, cylindrical clear glass bottle featuring a mechanical swing-top closure (also known as a flip-top or lightning toggle). The bottle is constructed from heavy-gauge glass with a slight greenish-blue tint often found in soda-lime glass. It features a prominent embossed logo on the shoulder, which includes the year '1895', referencing the heritage of the Grolsch Brewery. The closure consists of a galvanized steel wire bail, a white ceramic or hard plastic stopper, and a red rubber gasket used to create an airtight seal. The body of the bottle is smooth, though a modern white frosted square decal or etched mark is visible on the lower front section. This specific design is a contemporary reproduction of traditional 19th-century European beer bottles. The bottle appears to be in good used condition with no visible cracks or heavy chips in the glass, though the wire bail shows minor surface oxidation and the rubber gasket appears slightly compressed from use. There is a small circular indentation or 'dimple' near the neck, which is a common design element in modern mass-produced swing-top bottles for structural integrity and branding placement. The craftsmanship is industrial-grade, designed for durability and reuse.
