This paper builds on the few well known analyses of glass artefacts by recognising that bottle shape strongly influences glass artefact morphology in glass tool manufacture. Analysis of Aboriginally worked glass artefacts, using similar bottles, from two regions in Western Australia show differences that cannot be attributed to regional variation in raw materials. These differences may relate to long term approaches to artefact manufacture
