Those are nice bottles. Not unlisted but fairly rare.
I wrote about them in this post a while back...

Thanks you guys for the show....nice to see all the stunning glass,...Woody, was that the glass "whatizit?" plumbob looking thing on Norm Hecklers table?....I think there was a post here about it awhile back....Real nice job on the photo's Woody, and Cookie!...If I had a choice of one of the bottles shown, It would be that Poland stoddard bottle....(maybe I'll see another after studying them again later,...Also the Swaim's wannabe was awesome)....Not as good as going, but cheaper.[;)]

Woody,...had another question for you,....Do you (or anyone else) happen to know what this bottle I'm showing was? It looks like lockport glass, but even though it's in with other Merchant's bottles, I don't recognize it..I also wanted to compliment Jeff and Mike for their really quality looking wares...[:D]

Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to take and post so many great pictures. Yeah, I wanted to see bottles, and y'all delivered, but my favorite picture is the one with Jim Gratton and his mama. Spend as much time with your parents while you can.

That plumb bob thing bottle had water embossed on the panels, Joe, although I didn't ask Norm Heckler what kind of bottle it was.
Maybe Jeff or Mike can chime in as to what it is.

Are you talking about the Willington insulator? That is the sided piece (which comes to a point) in the center of the first picture. It is a mid 19th century lightning rod insulator produced at the Willington, CT glass factory. It is embossed "Patent" on one of the sides, and was priced at $1750... if I remember correctly.
