As you lift up on the top cover, a lever opens the top front panel to reveal a shelf. On this shelf are grooves that you can slide a glass into, such as a wine glass. There are also round cut-outs in the wood to hold regular glasses in place. The bottom has a shelf on top and more round cutouts to store bottles. There is a lock to the cabinet, but I don't have a key.
This vase was given to me and my wife as a gift. We were told it was very old and was a Northwood Vase from wheeling WV. It is about 8 inch tall and 5 1/2 inches in diameter. The pattern is what i believe to be "grape and cable" but is not very ornate compared to some of the examples i have seen online. the vase is frosted or satin as it seems to be referred to. the actual color of the glass is clear to a very pastel green. the iridescence is not overwhelming almost an undertone to the frosted finish. The Vase does not have the circle N trademark on the bottom but rather "Northwood" in script. there are three panels or sections on the vase each with an identical bunch of grapes. the top of the vase is comprised of grape leaves bending away from the center of the vase into a flared out position. photos to come. please let me know the story behind this unique piece of history or where i can go to get more information. thanks
This is a sled that appears to be of the "Radio Flyer" type with the metal runners and steering bar at front, however it is slightly smaller. The "seat" is made of metal and is attached to the wooden sled-cannot tell if this is a retrofit or original. Handle on back allows adult or another child to push. There is no identifying info anywhere on the sled. May consider selling.
