Hi Bottles!
I've uploaded the "nude" bonbonne in the demofolder, to show you, what it looks like without the basket...

well the bottl is green glass, the one you like... it's just covered with maybe 50 years of dust. That's what makes it look like clay...and on top is a cork surrounded by a piece of material in order to keep it tight. This is a quite common item here in this big wine growing area...and was mainly used for wine...
cheers

Barbara, I love this image; that is one old bottle! Your perfect focus really brings the textures out nicely. I suppose the bottle is made of some kind of clay and then baked? Pretty neat the way it's protected by the wicker basket too. Very nice work capturing this interesting subject and great for this challenge.
