Antique Bermuda Flasks and Bottles

Examples from the local area either embossed ‘Bermuda’ or closely associated with our island’s history
have always been a collector’s favorite. Please make arrangements to view my entire selection,
the result of decades of diligent search.

An immaculate Masonic Flask
      found in local waters. c1820. $2,500

Soda bottles designed to lie horizontally so that the cork remains moist and swelled, thus helping the tying wire to keep the fizz in the liquid:
     A pointed shaped hamilton embossed Charles C Keane, Hamilton, Bermuda. c1860. $350

Round bottom sodas similarly designed:
     M S T. c1890 Somerset. $175
