Unique Shell, Antique Pocketwatch, Cascarets Tins, Murano and French Perfume

[diggummup]

Didn't get too much this weekend. Still have a couple sales to go to tommorrow though. So far I found a few nice finds though.
Included are a Columbus Watch Co. sidewinder pocketwatch serial # dates it to 1890, runs, cost $15.
Also is a vintage .5 oz bottle of Jean Desprez Bal A Versailles Perfume, cost $1

Two very cool gold colored enameled Cascarets candy cathartic sample tins, one still has the paper label still in it dating it to the turn of the century (1900)
I paid $5 for these. Haven't found any like it yet. Condition is excellent.





I also found a weird looking piece of blown glass with a Campanella Murano label on it. I haven't found a comparison yet and I don't always believe labels so the jury is still out as to who made it. Unique looking piece though and for $5 I couldn't go wrong.

The last piece is my favorite. That is the shell displayed on a custom brass stand. It only cost me $3. I think the stand alone is worth more than that. I believe it is called a Murex Tribulus Spicatus.




And that's that so far, worth mentioning anyway. Anybody want to add anything feel free. Thanks for looking.

You once again had a good day on the road. I especially like the method in which the shell is displayed .Have the best of the rest of the weekend!

That shell is wicked awesome!

Wow, that's impressive. I love old perfumes, and the ones with the scent still in the bottle, will sell for considerably more as I'm sure you know. Love the shell and all of the finds, but especially that pocket watch (ka-ching!). That was a really good buy, especially since it runs.

I think you did sensational on all of these finds. Congratulations. They are rare and unique...

I wish I knew more about glassware. To me that vase looks like it's only a couple bits and pieces away from all the "tobacco water pipes" I see at the flea market!

As for those Cascarets tins, the wordmarks are slightly different. Most of the images I've found show wordmarks much more like the one on the left, with the deep curved swoosh under the word, the curlicue on the r, and the t straight and angled to the left. A tin very much like yours sold on etsy a while back, with a wordmark that looks like it'd come in between yours: Art Nouveau Enamel and Brass Cascarets by thecaravancollection

Yeah, all it's missing is a hole and a stem, lol. I'm gonna post it on a Murano forum that i'm a member of. Let them give an opinion.
Here is the label in the bottom of the Cascarets tin, it says it's a sample give away-
