Gas/Chemical bottle part?

[Shipwreck]

Hi everyone. My first post so be gentle!
A bit of a long shot but could this be part of a bottle used to contain a gas shell chemical?
Found on the Somme. It's approx 1 1/2" wide. The reason why I'm not convinced it's not just a regular bottle is that the base is domed, making it unsteady.

Thanks.

Ive not seen weaponised chemical payloads in clear bottles before, so i think it’s probably unlikely.

Not the normal type, so it ios a No from me.

Here’s 3 different examples of chemical bottles from the German 7.7cm and 10.5cm projectiles.

Thanks Pete. That will give me an idea on what to look out for.
