This is a deep cobalt example of the Ryan Excelsior Mineral Water. It has a much better than usual mold strike and loads of micro bubble crudity. Applied blob top, and a pontiled bottom with light frosting but no iron residue.
Embossed: JOHN RYAN / EXCELSIOR / MINERAL WATER / SAVANNAH GA // UNION GLASS WORKS / PHIL.A / THIS BOTTLE / IS / NEVER SOLD
Height: 7 1/2"
Color: deep cobalt blue
Condition: a super nice example that is clean, has very little wear, and the mold impression really pops. The only issue is that there is a 3/4" sideways hairline in the blob top that was likely from cooling stress during manufacturing, plus a couple very short <1/4" hairlines here and the in the neck area - mentioned for total accuracy. Most people would miss spotting.
