Hi I am trying to find out the worth of a bottle my mum is looking to sell but don’t know where to start.

It is a PORTMEIRION bottle with stopper. The only info on the bottle is = ORANGES and LEMONS PORTMEIRION Made in England Susan Williams-Ellis - and the number ‘3′ is also printed on the bottom.

I do not know anything about PORTMEIRION products or of their possible worth but am trying to find information as to whether or not it is sellable on a small scale or a more worthwhile scale.

Any advice would be most appreciated - either where to go, what to do, or even what to read would help.
Thanks in advance
Tracy

on the bottom of the bottle…if it is smooth it is a newer bottle…if it looks like it was twisted off..it is called the pontil mark formed when the glass blower twisted the glass off..these are alot older…turn of the century…as far as it being british…look there.
