From the pictures it looks like a quartz crystal carved bottle. Please confirm that it has inclusions ( what looks like lines and cracks inside) because I am seeing some light reflections from the inside.

Sorry this is NOT an ancient Roman artifact, it is too clean and new. Probably cut and shaped in China or Jaipur in India where I have seen such "antiques" manufactured. Everyone is not gullible, cheers.

From my cell It first looked like the shape of a frog what kind of seams does it have? How is the top applied? Are there bubbles spin lines? How is the pontil. All play a role in the age of the item.

From the pics it is too thick to be blown glass, therefore no pontil. It seems to be a quartz crystal vial, siome inclusions can be seen. Please view the gentleman's video, it basically says it all. Nicely carved but 99% sure it is not that old.
