| Description | This is a Griptight Feeding Bottle in its original cardboard case, which features written instructions. Inside the box, there is the infant's feeding bottle. It is made of clear glass, featuring embossed markings on the top side that read "Griptight" and "Made in England". The bottle has measurement scales embossed on both sides: "Table Spoon" on one side and "Ounces" on the other, allowing for precise measurement of the liquid inside.
The bottle is shaped like a hollowed tube with upward-curved ends. Both ends are sealed, with a removable India rubber teat on one end and a valve on the other.
