Aaah - something similar to glass balls containing water, for throwing at a fire.
Target balls. More info and some lab stuff in this link. :)

Not terribly effective, they were made under the name Monax who also made lab glass and lighting and domestic crockery.
in my defence, ;) I didn't know there was any access to the inside of the container - I did think it was completely sealed.
BlueOctopus:
You are right, my photo is a bit dizzy where the little entrance is. Hard to see
These target balls are crazy, Asterix would say: the British are a little nuts :o ::)
chopin-liszt:
The target balls are more Geriatrix. ;D
Without glass, we wouldn't have science. Prisms, Layden jars and Bell jars were all essential for modern science to begin. 8)
Jeffingtons:
Because it's Sunday and I've nothing better to do whilst waiting for the in-laws to arrive, thought I'd share my current coffee table display of textured glass. Couple of Kosta snowball votives, couple of Liskeard, vases, a Whitefriars, a Riihimaki, and a big lump of sommerso Murano whose maker I did identify many years ago, but whom I have now forgotten and can't find the link.
keith:
Like the display, this is our coffee table at the moment ;D ;D
