Mucky Still Life (Still Mucky Life?)

I usually show off my fossicked finds after I've cleaned them up, but thought they'd make an interesting still life.
Today's haul 2 Shipham's jars, 2 tiny vials and a pot.All are intact, found on the surface and not excavated.
WoW! Fab!

I love the little bottles on the right of the shot Jackie. Great finds and great mucky life - still 🤪
February 5th, 2021  
Wonderful find, like your still life too ;)
February 5th, 2021  
oooh those are fabulosas! don't clean them, but if you must, just a cursory cleaning of the outside, so they would retain their "excavated" look. aces!

Such interesting shapes. I agree that the dirt adds to their story.
February 5th, 2021  
Wonderful finds! I'm sure you'll have them all cleaned up soon enough.

@monikozi here https://365project.org/30pics4jackiesdiamond/365/2021-01-11 where the sea wall has been breached and after each high tide more glassware appears. Susan @wakeleys and I enjoy a rummage to see what we can find on the surface
@uerks good one
@marlboromaam and disinfected too
@theredcamera but the colours of the eroded glass is sometmes really pretty
@summerfield they will be cleaned in and out and sprayed with antiseptic
@jacqbb thank you camera club this month is all about still lifes (lives?) and I made a start today
@365anne I've never found any like these before nne and theyre both different, I wonder if they are perfume sample bottles?
@katarzynamorawiec thank you

I like them in their natural state with all the sand and dirt still on them. You were exactly right it’s more interesting this way. I love the light and the composition.
February 5th, 2021  
Great stil life. Nice find.
February 5th, 2021  
great that you ae turning up new shapes - and good whole specimens too

The one on the right looks like an old Heparin or insulin vial fro way back when.

The one on the far right looks like an insulin bottle.

Another great find and capture.
February 5th, 2021  
Cool!
February 5th, 2021  
Wow what interesting finds. I love old bottles and jars.
February 6th, 2021  
You are doing really well finding these old bottles.
Have you found a message in any yet?
Or has a Genie popped out when you cleaned one?
February 6th, 2021  
I like these old bottles. I used to have a bunch in my kitchen window. One was just like the vial on the right. Wonder where they got to?
February 6th, 2021  
These are great, I really like the vials
February 6th, 2021  
What treasures you have unearthed...
February 6th, 2021  
Such fascinating finds. Look good with the muck on.
February 6th, 2021  
That’s a great find !
February 6th, 2021  
Wow, really cool finds. I'd be thrilled to come across any of those!
February 6th, 2021  
You're building up quite a collection. I've heard stories here of people fossicking on old tip sites for bottles, picking the best for themselves and smashing what they don't want :(
February 6th, 2021  
Great finds, you must have quite a collection now!
February 6th, 2021
