Hey Star,Good to hear from you.Hope all is well.I posted a picture of my basement in the collectors chat under"Christmas in So.Cal?"That is a pretty good indication
The flask on the right is refered to as a pinch waist chestnut flask(European) 1820-1850.I believe I've seen more modern versions.
I have no idea about the other flask.

Hi ajohn,  That bottle on the right is a neat illustration of riggare.  It is created with a pulled ribbon of glass and laid on from one end to the other with tongs and the percella tool.  I don't know much else about it though.  Is the center pinched together?  RED Matthews
