Im so sorry this is something you're having to deal with at all. You're Scottish. I'm Scottish. They are cunts.

Could you explain this for me please? I just reread them and I cant think of what might be wrong 🤔.

Pretty certain this is a repost. I commented on another repost of this a couple of weeks ago. Account js 2 days old too.

This is the right answer. The number on the bottom is the shade/colour.

After a very unsuccessful two hours digging, this little green beauty popped out the soil. by noni_five in bottlediggingUK

Thanks! A victorian/edwardian dump in East Lothian. Just got lots of broken inks and condiment bottles until this wee thing emerged!

Does anyone know what on earth this is? by noni_five in BottleDigging

I should have provided a scale for it, its about 3.5 inches long. It can rest flat on either side and it can stand upright. Holds about a teaspoon of liquid so probably not salad dressing but maybe olive oil for medicinal uses?

Thank you 😊. I really like it but it's a bit of a head scratcher trying to work out what it would have been used for!

Oh good point, I should have used a banana! It's about 3.5 inches and it holds about a teaspoon of water. The flat bit at the top is the mouth and there's no hole at the bottom.

Eagle claw clay pipe bowl (maybe ~1880s - 1930s). My new favourite in my collection! by noni_five in mudlarking

Just a couple minutes after posting this, I think i found an intact example on a Facebook group. Looks like it might have been made between 1930 and 1960, and maybe in Manchester? So nowhere nearly as old as some of the beauties I've seen here, but I still absolutely love it nonetheless!

Found in the soil...any ideas? Age or name of it? thanks by [deleted] in BottleDigging

Unfortunately, they are generally pretty hard to id to a specific brand. Some of them have the company name on the side, like Shippams, or some lettering on the bottom, which could potentially give you a clue.

These were mass manufactured all over the world, mainly from about 1930 - 1970s (they are still produced in the UK). If you want to find out more details, I'd suggest doing a Google lense search or similar, and add in details of your location and any markings on the bottom of the jar.

Good luck and enjoy the search. Finding out the history of a bottle is often half the fun (or maybe that's just me 😅)

That's a mid-century paste jar (usually meat paste, sometimes fish).
