What I've found in June. :-)

Probably a quiet time of year but I'm sure there are still some goodies out there.  Rug up peoples, winter is here. :_|

Would they be wax seals?

The wax seals refers to grannyfrog's items.

Chocolate moulds, I think from less hygienic times.

I thought chocolate moulds at first,but would they have been made in brass.


 


Never thought of wax seals.


 


Thank you both for your replies.

granny, the moulds being in such an 'industrial' looking metal, I'd guess something for the plastics industry perhaps?  making that 'fake' moulding for post-war furniture.  The larger one has a pouring hole I see.

Re: What I've found in June. :-)

Have my niece and family from Brisbane staying with me for a couple of nights and my niece wanted to visit a couple of my local op shops.


 


The third and last one we visited my niece said to me,"This is like some of the pottery you have" and handed me this jug.


 


Have to say I have not seen this shape before.
