{"product_id":"berry-brothers","title":"Berry Bros \u0026 Rudd London Bottle – Federal Law Green Glass","description":"\u003cp\u003eBerry Bros \u0026amp; Rudd has traded continuously from No. 3 St. James’s Street, London since 1698 — making it one of the oldest surviving businesses in Britain and one of the oldest wine and spirits merchants in the world. The company has held Royal Warrants for generations, supplying the British royal household across multiple reigns. When this bottle was produced, Berry Bros \u0026amp; Rudd was approaching its third century of continuous operation — a provenance that very few spirits brands anywhere in the world can match. The Federal Law text places this in the pre-1964 American import window, the period when all glass containers used for spirits entering the U.S. market were required by law to carry the Federal Law prohibition phrase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEmbossing: \u003cstrong\u003eBERRY BROS \u0026amp; RUDD LTD LONDON ENGLAND\u003c\/strong\u003e on the front face; \u003cstrong\u003eFEDERAL LAW FORBIDS SALE OR RE-USE OF THIS BOTTLE\u003c\/strong\u003e on the body; \u003cstrong\u003eMADE IN GREAT BRITAIN\u003c\/strong\u003e on the base.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition is good with minor surface scratches consistent with age and ground recovery.

Works as a statement bar cart centerpiece alongside other Federal Law-era imports, as a tall bud vase for pampas or dried botanicals where the green glass and the height both command the display, or as a dark academia anchor piece where the St. James’s Street provenance and the centuries of British spirits history speak for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRecovered from New York City’s historic shorelines and landfill sites by Brooklyn Sea Glass.
