An abstract design made up of glass gems on display at a farmers' market craft stall. (This would make a good jigsaw puzzle.)

Living nightmare - encased in glass a cocktail shaker with yellow drink and a nice up of tea....
A very minimalist still-life. The mortar and pestle was once employed in a pharmacy and the bottle is a rather battered example of the work of John Lamont.
The Lamont style bottle was designed by John Lamont in England in 1874 and patented in 1876. The design included a rim inside the neck of the bottle and a stopper with a rubber ring. The stoppers were patented in 1881 with a bullet-shaped ebonite or wooden stopper. The stopper was pushed into the bottle to open it. Lamont’s bottles became very popular in Australia with many companies using them, particularly during the 1890s. By the 1910s they were becoming outdated, replaced by improvements in Codd’s style bottles, the development of the internal thread and the crown seal.
The bottle was manufactured in Glasgow and the stopper is still inside it.
