Glass post medieval, circular, wine bottle, seal with coat of arms stamped into it. The seal has been stamped into molten glass attached to the side of a bottle. It depicts an arm holding an incense burner with a small crescent above the crook of the elbow. There is a thick ribbed border around the shield, flat topped and set within the circular stamp. The only part of the main bottle to remain is the section of the bottle wall attached to the seal itself. The glass is green in colour, and the surface is slightly pitted.
