1. Cobalt small bottles. Two poison. One Bromo, Emerson Drug, Toronto, Ont. I used to have mini, medium and large Emerson, Toronto, Ont. - but two either lost in moves, pinched perhaps - boo hiss. The mini one is book piece. All cork stoppers. Poisons have ridges, crosses, shapes and embossed 'Do Not Take' or 'Death Awaits'.
2. German wine bottles with applied gold painted monkeys. Different years. One on left is older and a book piece from England, other from Canada. (A case of [no pun intended] so many, many years I thought I had the only one.)
3. Everyone's favourite $350-$500 Ming Thing, or one of hundreds of celadon - you can see a trace of blue at the very top, glazed green jars.
Sorry for atrocious photos, taken a while ago and to get a photo from phone to jpg. mystifies me. Usually #1 son helps, will have to nab him again when he is here.
All of them are nice, but that green pottery vase? is the best - in my opinion :)
Thanks so much martika. It has six panels all with a different decoration.When I went back to England to settle up my mum's estate, this was one of the things I snagged in the "shall we donate it, or keep it" collection.

Hello, you had asked about "Pin-Set" on my post. It is a watch design, where as you depress the small pin with your fingernail and turn the stem to adjust the time. most watches you either pull and turn the stem to adjust the time, these have small pin sticking up by the stem. Vosboy answered you on the posting, but thought I'd drop in and explain. recheck my posting photo#3 and you will see the small pin next to stem
Very nice to have all that love. Thank you everyone.
you might want to list these seperately, otherwise collectors miss out on your othr items if the glance at just your main photo.
I used to post like this too, mainly because I'm lazy!!!
Lovely items....
Anne,
I will admit to being lazy, but (there's always a but) the problem is I don't have enough 'angles' to display of each thing, so these three individual pictures were the only ones I had available to upload. My phone camera is okay, but I'm dealing with a 'how to get phone pics from the camera to the computeritis'. Very embarrassing. So (sorry for the novel here) I have a lot of items to upload, and they are just sitting in the camera.
Time to be quiet Gillian, I think you understand - I would like to do each one separately - I'm a work in progress.
All the best,
Gillian
