Some crazy finds over the w/e

[EndlesDreamer]

I had a lead on an old vacant farm, so I took a country drive to find it. We checked the property in hope to find bottles. At the end of the property was a ravine, to steep to even try to attempt to get down it. Next best things to check were the 2 barns.....Heres the unexpected discoveries!

Lisa, you are killing me!!!!! Great finds. What does the bottle say?

Hi Warren....LOL sorry for killing you! I didnt have much of an idea what some things where, I knew they "looked" old. Was really excited about just getting permission to look for bottles there and I was told whatever I wanted I could take. Now after getting some info, I'm REALLY excited. The rocker is a Wakefield Rattan 1850's, also some great history behind Cyrus Wakefield and his discovery of rattan. The clocks, which I found 2, are Seth Thomas case stlye 30hr. brass weight driven. That stlye is 1842-1913. LOL and the lonely bottle is a Citrate.

I just received an "Antique Clocks" book from my dad....lots of Seth Thomas....do you know what kind of wood it is....walnut, rosewood, mahogany....

And, for starters, I'm guessing it is called a "shelf clock".... and maybe a Connecticut Shelf Clock....? and there is also something called a "Rose Column" that resembles it....

And, oh yeah, my first thought was, we would probably be seeing you on "Antiques Roadshow" with that Rocker!!
