Approximate measurements:
6 5/8" tall (includes inserted stopper)
3" in diameter at the bottom
Condition: The stopper is stuck and will not come off; the bottle is empty. There are minor flaws in the glass, including a few air bubbles and slight flea bites on the stopper edge. Expected wear on the paper label. Please see the provided images.
