Etching of biblical scene from 1720 was probably cut from book (Bible?) The name le Brun appears on the bottom left which I assume refers to Charles le Brun. Etching is in very good shape, some aging around the edges of the paper, but otherwise, nice.

I have numerous bells and perfume bottles which I inherited from my Grandmother, but lets start with the following: This bell is of a male figure (dutchman) with his hands in his pockets on the top. The pictures are a windmill center and 2 other buildings to the left and right of the windmill, in front is a field and birds flying. On the sides there are 3 dots top and 3 dots bottom on both sides. The back has a flower design and 3 dots bottom. The inside has some writing, can't make it all out, but the word ZENITH is in there.

Found this little bottle several weeks back while checking out an abandoned pump house in my city. It burned down in  the 1890's, which is why I'm guessing this bottle is from around that time. There are no markings on the bottle that I could see, and there are several rough spots in the glass where it looks as though it must have been exposed to the fire.  I'm sure it's a fairly common thing to come across but just curious to know a little more about it.

Weird vase from by my parents over 26 years ago (my current age since i wasnt born yet) in an attic where the old tenants had abandoned amongs other items that they believe the people were into some cultist activity. Parents are superstitious due to the demon/devil/horned creatures at the footings, so thought it had been thrown away... but i found it again and trying to find out any info and if it has any value. 

though it says 1396 im guessing it could also be 1896..
