Description
Fabulous uranium glass antique French seltzer bottle. Glows under UV light. Front etching reads, "F. Aubert ~ Fab(ri)que de Boissons Gazeuse ( Maker of Carbonated Drinks) ~ Lisle s' Sorque". L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is a Provençal town in the department of Vaucluse, southeast France. Body is ribbed in a swirl pattern. I believe this bottle dates to the late 1800's or very early 1900's. Seltzer bottles were used throughout the 1800's and reached their peak in 1920's.Condition:

Note some photos appear redundant because I take photos from all possible angles. On symmetrical items, these photos may appear redundant when there are no distinguishing differences or condition issues between side views.

The item listed is being sold as is, as pictured and as described to the best of my knowledge. All dimensions and weights approximate.

Remember, when buying vintage expect imperfections as these items have a history and have been in the possession of others. I try to list EVERY flaw which would be commented on something in an antique or vintage condition – this does not mean all imperfections resulting from normal wear & use require comment. My goal is to have no rude surprises upon receipt.
