Today, I’m sharing a piece of ‘granite ware’ that I bought several years ago.
That’s easy: a candle holder, right? Well, not really.
The center hole is through the entire item. And what is the purpose of the other, smaller holes?
Perhaps this is a top, and the center hole fits over something? The little ‘thumb-ring’ is to make it easy to remove? The smaller holes could be for ventilation? (Lots of questions and ‘maybe’s in today’s post.)
Years ago, I took this to a local antique dealer, and he didn’t have any ideas as to what it could be. And a Google Lens search brings up nothing similar.
And why did I buy this, not knowing its purpose? Well, that’s another mystery….
So, do you have any suggestions/guesses? If any of my readers know, I’ll be sure to share in an upcoming post.
