Bottle Pyrex
Anyone know anything about old bottles?
I found an old glass bottle /jug. It is clear glass and stands about 2 ft. high. It is apx. 18 inches acros at it's widest point. The mouth has an opening of 2 inches. It will hold 10 gallons or more.It must have had a cork closure because there are no grooves or ridges for a screw on top. It has these words on front (embossed) "PYREX REG U S PAT OFF MADE IN USA".
Any help on dating this or direction to any website that may be helpful would be appreciated. (Sorry I didn't know what category this should go in)
I know the bluer in tint, the older the bottle. Look for seams running down the sides or bubbles in the glass. This also helps in identifying age.
To research it, I would go to your local forest service/museum (or where you found the bottle). Often there is information about historic settlements. BE CAREFUL, in many places it is illegal to remove historic trash.

The body, or govde, of a hookah pipe consists of a curved vessel which holds water. A graceful stem rises from the body and at the top of the stem is a bowl, or lle, which holds the tobacco. From one to several flexible hoses, the marpuc, with a mouthpiece, or agizlik, at the end, are used to draw the hookah smoke down through the water. The hookah tobacco is heated by charcoal and the water filters and cools the smoke. The water gurgles gently, like a woodland stream, and, in the process, makes the smoke smooth and cool.
The word shisha, which is often another word for hookah, comes from the Persian meaning glass or bottle. Hookahs and the culture of hookah smoking is often referred to as hookah shisha. Somewhat confusingly, at first, people also refer to hookah tobacco as shisha, or hookah shisha--and there is a Shisha brand of hookah shisha!

Hookah pipes today come in many styles, from Egyptian to Syrian, traveling, mini and mod models to specialty and custom designs. There is a world of history in the craftsmanship of hookah pipes. Traditional materials used in making hookahs were blown glass, often highly decorated in gold or enamel painting, brass, aluminum, silver, porcelain, clay, carved stone and wood, and leather. All these same materials are used today, with the addition of stainless steel, Pyrex glass, plastic, rubber, and high quality acrylics, among others.
In restaurants and smoking lounges, individually wrapped, disposable plastic mouthpieces are provided for each smoker. Other accoutrements of the hookah pipe and tobacco include the hookah charcoal and metal tongs. The charcoal is typically in coin-sized pieces and each lasts for about 30 minutes in the slow smoking tobacco mixture.
Certain etiquette applies to the smoking of hookah pipes: the water pipes are meant to be on the ground, rather than on a high table or shelf, with the smokers seated on cushions or low seats around it--though in modern hookah lounges, they often appear on tables. Shared hookah pipes are not supposed to be passed, but rather set down after smoking so that the next smoker can take up the pipe at their leisure.
