Looking for display ideas

[southern Maine diver]

Hey Karen...

Welcome to our little family on the forum!!! Nice to have you on board...

That's a nice ink collection you have going and yes, there are a lot of ink enthusiasts here and they can probably answer a lot of your questions about some of the inks. If they don't know the info, they can sure point you in the right direction to look...[]

Now, one of the things you have to do, is go to the "collector's chat" category and post a photo of yourself on the thread, "Who is this guy" and that way we can put a face with the name...[] Well, maybe you shouldn't read that thread, cause then you'll see some of the people that hang out here and you might change your mind...[&o]

You're going to find great stories, super information, terrific photos, good leads and ideas for digging, new friends and a place to share your enthusiasm for the "glass"[]

Anyway, welcome...

Wayne[&:]

Hi Warren,

I'm trying to curb this obsession enough to unload all the non displayed inks and non inks before I collect more inks! I have some bottles I'm not even sure are inks and could use help identifying them before I put them up for sale. This one is about 3 1/5" tall. It looks like a tall skinny umbrella but it has a long loopy thread. Any ideas?

Bottom view of "umbrella" with thread. Salt shaker?

Threaded Umbrella?

It does look like an ink but I would be more inclined to say it's a salt or pepper shaker.
The continuous thread on it was the first common design for threaded bottles.
