Featured cool impossible beach find

Well somebody has to win, eventually. I'd say this piece would blow every odds-makers book in Vegas.

 

Message in a bottle. Maybe you can find the other three to complete it. Very ornate.

 

Charlie-What's that abstract sculpture on the front lawn ?

 

Its called old dog (who can't quite make the steps) ramp, propped up against a cut down tree

Ah...we re-visit our old friend: coinkydink...
An' learning of their hidden talent in th' bargain!

 

I bet you've been peeping through his windows too!

 

The mystery deepens,speaking of getting deep...(doo-doo)

 

i'm looking after her dogs this week (so i'm not just in her house snooping....well i am a bit)

and she's found some interesting bits and bobs.

i only generally like the perfect symmetrical bits of sea glass / bottles, but some of the huge black glass bottle bits are interesting. they are so thick and layered they look black, but in the sun light you can see the real colour

have no idea what the peach glass thing is, interesting looking though ?

 

few nice complete bottle as well, like the deco looking one

 

The wine bottle looks/looked like what we'd call a blob top. No idea if it is or not.

 

That's not Art Deco-it's got an applied top (blob top aka Ruth). See if it's got a pontil on the bottom (blow hole scar).Could date to 1840'-1870's.
This one-
18th Century Black Glass Rum, Porter Mallet Bottle (asking $325)-no lettering that early except for a 'shoulder seal' (like a wax seal on a document-only signet's an applied glass disc).
These could be found on those beaches-but, careful diggin' !

 

Hand-blown bottles that old, and in good shape, tend to sell for a bit. I'm no glassie, and bottles are a very niche specialty, but even I know that much.

 

yeah it was the clear glass one that i thought had a deco look with those lines

 

Sorry Chas-that last one's def Deco.

 

1730-1740

 

Wine bottle or similar. File under: things we'd like to find at a rummage/jumble sale.

 

I second that emotion !
