(Themed) glass displays - show me yours, I'll show you mine... part 4
BlueOctopus:
So I go on with my collection
we are still in the bathroom, on the left side you see some aerometer, you can measure the density of fluids with these, you may know them from car batterys. in front of the aerometers is a weighing boat out of deer horn/ antler
then right from the old tin boxes two very old apothecary glasses are following, these I think are 1850 or older. The glass is very violett from manganium and the labes are hand written/painted by I think maybe cold enemal. Then a collection of funny glasses are following, the most seldom one is that with the papermachee cover to protect from light, that is in very good condition. And i think funny is the small bottle in the front with the diamond shape stopper, how delicat for a simple iodine bottle. The iodine is still in... the stopper is absolutely frozen in.
Hope you enjoyed them

Wow, Monika, what lovely displays you have made, and your views around your home are beautiful. I think we would have had a lot of fun searching for glass together!

I haven't got past droo-oooling over your case of beautiful graded density meters...
I want to watch them bobbing around in different molarities of salt solutions. ;D
BlueOctopus:
Thanks you both. Yes old Lab glas is sometimes very funny. Tomorrow I show you 2 very funny items, one will be a riddle, but I know the answer ??? ;D
@ cat: I would love to dig in all your traesure boxes, that will be like digging for gemstones and finding them at least.
Today I will go on with my dining room and the big entrance of this farming house.

Don't give us the answer! ;D
I can remember when glass coils for Gas-Liquid-Chromatography had to be hand blown and packed, activated and conditioned. No buying "ready made" coils in!
I'm ready for your challenge. 8)
