The reverse side depicts a hunting scene of a hunter chasing an elf who has taken his kill. Circa late 19th c. Measures 3 1/4''H x 2 1/2''W. The second bottle depicts a similiar scene on one side and a worn floral scene on the reverse. Also circa late 19th c. Measures 2 7/8''H x 2 1/2''W. Both show patina commensurate with age.
