Found a few sweeties today.

3 in 1 oil, common, but never even saw one before.
Nice aqua cone ink.
and A very nice Re Umberto brand pure olive oil.......the thing is that I have never seen one this old.....

And a sauce bottle of some kind, just awesome to look at....The etching is handdone, and you tell the stone wheel was used on that one to create the engravings..any thoughts on this one guys?

And yet another hatchet head.

Ok...on to the good stuff 8)

Here is the "sauce"? on the left and the Re unberto on the right

any ideas on this thing guys? it is pretty! It looks like something was supposed to be on the bottom half of this piece, but there is those grind marks on it....

one more...

ok on the umberto....seams stops about 1.5 inches from the top, lots o crudeness

Looks like it is from a castor set.
Probably held oil or vinegar.

Thanks woody!
You nailed it! I searched ebay for Castor and sure enough....If I can nail the pattern down ....., It might be Fenton, not sure though.
1880ish

This is as close to the pattern as I could find.

Hard to think....wow...that thing sure was classy back in its day.
