That makes a lot more sense!  I just couldn't figure out how it would have worked.  THANK YOU!

Antique Questions Forum / need help identifying an old lamp

« on: September 08, 2014, 03:45:43 pm »

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this one?  I found this lamp and it has no cord only the 2 valves at the top. I can't find a name the only mark I see is on all 4 sides of the base it looks like 2 dragons facing each other. The ball on top does unscrew but only reveals a small hole. The cap that the ball screws into also unscrews but once again is a small hole. It stands about 22" tall. The body seems to be made of porcelain or ceramic material. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I was wondering if anyone could help me with this one? At first I thought it was a regular lamp but than I noticed there was no place for a light bulb no cord and only those 2 small valves on each side. The ball on top unscrews but only reveals a small hole, the part the ball is screwed into will also twist off the main stand but it's just a hole inside also. I can't find any name anywhere,  the only thing I see is on the bottom of the medal stand it looks like 2 dragons facing each other.

That's not really feasible for me. These bottles were produced and packed in Texas and I live in Indiana!  But I do thank you for your time!

The seam runs vertically up the bottle( I can't get a good picture of it) but it's runs on the left side of the Y in valley. The cap caught my attention because there's a rubber seal on the inside wall on the cap.  Was pry off cap that was vapor vacuum sealed.

My father in law recently passed away and we were cleaning out the house and there was a case of these bottles in the attic.  I saved 3 because all the rest the label's were gone or in really bad shape. It didn't look like anyone or anything had been in the attic for a very long time. From the research I had done I think the Riona products closed in I believe it was 1928?

Upon further research I believe I also have the Burell cast iron centrifuse (not sure I spelled it correctly) that the bottles were tested in. I had no idea that the 2 had anything to do with each other.  The Burrell was in a storage shed outside and the bottles in the basement. I can post pics of the Burrell when I get home if anyone would be able to help me confirm my thoughts.
