What is this? - 9/3/2005 12:52:22 PM    Hayes   Posts: 59 Joined: 8/19/2005 From: Candia,NH Status: offline Does anybody know what this might be? my guess was a perfume bottle but im not sure. it's 7in long and 4 sided with a very sharp dagger looking point that you look down into when you look in the bottle, it also has gold x's on front and back and the sides look like they had gold leaves. no seams, rough bottom with more gold. its very pretty but what a waste of space for whatever was in it, all the space around the dagger could not have held anything. Thanks for looking! ~L Attachment (1) Post #: 1

I dont really know what the top would of looked like besides having a long sharp applicator, it would of had to sit on its side to rest without spilling. Hmmm. maybe somebody will know something. thanks ~L (in reply to Hayes) Post #: 3
