    My small treasures

    All these small glass objects have been found in the garbage dump of the former offices of nitrate plants operated in the North of Chile between the years 1880 and 1930.

    More varied in shape and colour are the inks and small bottles of remedies poisons or other contents.

      Beautiful collection! I have been researching inks for a family friend who has me selling some for her and I am enjoying what I am learning about the historical aspects of these objects while researching prices. It's always fun to wonder who was the person using the object, what type of writing they were doing with it? Was it for letter writing to a loved one at war, was it used for thier diary? This is a beautiful collection!
