Wow! Solid gold!
This is the centre piece of my collection. Cast from 24k gold, it was found among the treasures of King Tutankhamun by famed archaeologist, Howard Carter in 1922. Bottles such as this were placed inside the sarcophagus as it was believed the beverage would offer the dead refreshment as they passed on to the next life. The red pouch is velvet and was made in China. You may also find one here.

Is your bottle filled with gold? or is it plated?
I have one that appears to be filled with gold and very heavy. Bottom is embossed San Rafael, Calif. Cap is rusted to the point where you cannot read anything.

Hi Fred, why don’t you send me a picture of it? I’d love to put it on my site.
