    Creamer...new from Mexico or old ?

    Hi Everyone. I have this squat creamer and I'm wondering if it's direct from Mexico or Pier One or is it an actual old piece. I'll post some pics, any help is greatly appreciated. More pics in next posts.

    Newer or older ?

    this globular glass vase that I think is maybe newer Mexico but something made me ask here to be sure. It has legitimate base wear (hard to photograph) so I don't think it's brand spanking new but I'd appreciate your expert thoughts on the age and origin of this piece. Measures 6+1/2" high...

    Is this stoneware bottle an ink ?

    Hi Everyone ! I was wondering if this is an ink bottle. It looks like the English Inks I see but this one is very small at 2 3/4" high. Do you think it's older or a repro ? No spout. Two pics to follow. Thanks in advance !

    Dark green English bottle, BEER ?

The base is embossed "C.S & CO.LD" I'm pretty sure it's English but what sort of liquid ? Beer, ale or maybe water ?[/align]It looks nice next to...

    Hood's Sarsaparilla Pill Label...SARSATABS ?

    The bottle itself isn't unusual, just a round, clear BIM about 4" high.[/align] [/align]I love the label though. I have the common Hood's Sarsarparilla panel in aqua, both large and small but I've never seen the label for the pills called SARSATABS.. I think they were chocolate coated ?[/align]...

    Black glass apothecary ?

    Hello Everybody ! I just picked up this square dark glass bottle. It looks black until held up to the light and then it looks very dark reddish-amber. There is quite a bit of dirt encrusted inside, I think it will clean up nicely. The mold seam stops at the neck base and the neck and lips...

    1890's Version of recycling ?

    I dug this bottle years ago and have always wondered about it. It looks like it was originally a pickle, olive or some kind of food jar that was meant to be used as a bank after the food is gone. It's embossed "PIN MONEY" on one of the panels. Has anybody here ever seen another ?

    What do I call this base ?

    I have this pretty little master ink and was wondering what to call this base. It has 3 mold marks that make it look like it was 3 pieces put together to form the bottle. I think it says 6 oz on the bottom. Thanks for all the help you guys ! Another picture in the second post.

    I was hoping you could help me again...

    You guys were such a big help with my last request I'm hoping you can tell me when this pitcher was made and if it has any value. The mold seam seems to be polished off just after the base of the neck, if that helps. I've included a pic of the base. TIA !
