I found a piece of sea glass years ago. It is a green piece of glass with a picture of Pluto and the name Pluto under it. It is a large piece almost the whole bottom of a soda bottle.
Can you tell me anything about this?
I have it displayed in my curio cabinet and have gotten so many questions regarding it.
Hello, I collect seaglass and I came upon and won a bid for "surf-tumbled beach sea glass bottle bottom, Pluto" I won the bid on this particular piece from an owner who lives in Denton, Maryland.
Owner states that she picked it up off the beach sand 15 yrs ago off the Chesapeake Bay near Chestrtown, MD.
After doing some research online I've learned that some bottles had a label with a red devil design. Some bottles were "medicinial bottles."
And Pluto water was a very popular sparkling mineral water from the mid 1800's - 1920.
The "Devil" on the bottom of the bottle is not the Devil, but the (God -Pluto.)
Interesting what one can learn from a piece of glass that tumbled upon a sandy beach.....Ziggy

pluto water bottle and sea glass by: shawn
Hi just read your question about Pluto.
I collect bottles and sea glass starting just this year.
Pluto Water was water fortified with salt, magnesium, and sulphates and was used as a laxative.
Pluto was also on the cap, and the bottle had Pluto Water America's Physic. And the word Pluto were on the bottom of the bottle.
Hope this helps you.

Where is the picture ? by: Anonymous
It would have been nice if you had a picture of the piece with your article.
I don't think too many people can help you without see it. I can't!
Not only that, people visit this web site would love to see what the other beach combers are finding on their outing. :-)
