Description I still have items listed/to list from the rural estate sale, and I stopped by an antique store going out of business – so have lots of brand new finds for you this week. There’s something for everyone! Please be sure to scroll all the way down to the bottom of all of my listings as I usually have MORE photos down there, too!

I am totally out of my league on this one. It was labled as a fire extinguisher bottle, so I\'m telling you what it said, but I\'ve not sold or seen one before, so please see my photos and what you think. It\'s clearly an old piece - I\'m calling it vintage in my title but it may be old enough to be antique. I didn\'t remove the bottle from the metal frame because I don\'t know if you are supposed to remove it. It LOOKS like you might be able to get it out if you pulled apart the two vertical bars that are not attached at the top. It\'s a molded glass bottle and the mold lines go all the way to the top of the mouth, which has two raised rings around it but they are not what I\'d call screw cap rings as they are not all one ring that rotates around to end - it\'s two separate rings - do you know what I mean? It LOOKS like, from what I can see of the bottom that there\'s circles in the glass on the underside, but I cannot feel anything - it\'s totally smooth. Now, it\'s a clear glass bottle that has a raised line and mark on the side that reads, \"ACID LINE.\" The bottle has an opaque white haze on the inside - mostly ABOVE that line. Inside, there\'s what looks to be pieces of hay or maybe string? This one came from a farm, so I\'m not surprised! It\'s dirty inside and out and needs a good cleaning - I do not clean or mess with as found patina in any way. The bottle has a cap that is of the same metal as the frame - I cannot tell what it is, but it\'s darkdark grey and a magnet does not stick to it. Iift up the cap and there\'s a 3\" white \"finger\" for lack of a better word that is attached to the inside of the lid and goes into the bottle. It\'s all white and I at first thought it was like chalk or plaster, but in looking at the edges, I think it\'s metal, too, and just has the white patina - but not opaque. Clearly from sitting in whatever used to be in the bottle. There\'s some teeeenie dings on the outside of the edge of the lid, but nothing more than that. The bottle is in excellent condition with no chips or cracks that I can find - the dirtiness being the only \"issue\" and as it\'s all part of the story, that doesn\'t matter to me! The frame holds the bottle well and is in excellent structural condition with no cracks or structural issues that I can see. In addition to the grey patina, I see both blue and green colors in isolated spots - more seen on the underside of the frame - see photo 13. No idea if that is paint or??? It\'s a rustic frame, with bumps and rough spots that are more on the top ring than anywhere. I can see some small dings to the metal along the outside perimeter of the ring, too. It\'s as dirty as the inside of the bottle! The frame measures 3 3/8\" diameter across the top on the outside, 2 1/2\" diameter on the inside and it\'s 7 1/8\" tall. The bottle measures about 2 1/4\" diameter and 6\" tall. That\'s estimated, as I didn\'t remove it to measure - see my comments above, I have no idea if it comes out or if you will be able to get it out of the frame. It does lift up. The bottle and frame measure 1 1/4 lb. Just another fabulous heartland farm find!

Customer Satisfaction is extremely important to me. If you receive an item and are not satisfied in any way, please contact me before leaving response.

If you are using a phone or tablet to look at listings, you may not be seeing full descriptions – please make sure you are – I list sizes, condition and many photos on all of my items – so if you are not seeing that, you’re not seeing all I have about the listing.

Please ask if you have any questions, or feel free to inform me if you have any information about one of my listings. As with any of my items, if you ever need extra photos, let me know. My white stool, my rug and anything else that you see other than the item discussed are not included in the sale!

I’m happy to combine shipments for you, when possible - depending upon size and weight, it might not always be possible, though. If you win an item and plan to offer on another, please hold to pay for the first item and request a combined shipping invoice once you’ve won the other item/s. As I have to ship within 24 hours, if you pay for an item, I have to ship it, I cannot hold for items that close another day, if you pay for the first item. Unless you ask me for an invoice earlier, I will invoice on Sunday for multiple items purchased the week prior. Purchases made on Monday will be added to the following week\'s invoice if multiple purchases are made. 7 days from the closing of the FIRST bought item will be the longest I can wait time wise to combine, and I ask for immediate payment after invoice for combined orders. Please know that some items cannot be combined, though, do to size, weight, or safety of the items. Many items that are set to ship in USPS FLAT RATE boxes; I cannot combine due to size restrictions. Please look at the shipping alternatives in the listings. I only mail USPS and pack in the best manner that we feel safe – I cannot change shipment methods after the close of an sale (i.e. rolling an old map to save money when I have it set to ship flat), especially if I feel the requested method is not safe. Again, I only ship USPS and charge actual cost to ship only. I ship within one business day of receipt of your payment, unless there’s a holiday that closes the post office, or I will notify you otherwise. As I shop for treasures on the weekends, I most often do not ship on Saturday. Most items closing and paid for on Friday will be shipped on Monday.

Many of my items come from local rural estate sales and sales. They are coming right from the barn or attic to you - dust, dirt, cobwebs and all! I do not clean and polish before I sell – they are in the condition found, as you see in my photos, and I leave the patina exactly as it was when I bought the item. I do my best to photo and describe all thoroughly.

Please email me before offerding if you do not use PayPal, and we can discuss possible payment alternatives. Payment is due within 3 business days after close of sale.

With postage rates increasing regularly, I am shipping more and more items Parcel Select. Parcel Select travels by land or rail and the packages do not leave the regional post office until they fill up a bin going in the same direction (so the estimated delivery is truly only an estimate – not exact). The post office estimates 5-7 days, but it can go up higher, sometimes even 3-4 weeks in peak mailing times like the holidays. I always provide a tracking number, so you can see where your item is on any day.

Sales tax will be added for Illinois buyers.
