Shower Me With Love Wonderfully Strange Old Bathing Beauty Rum Bottle bentwood bowl and I'd guess second halfWhat a weird one! I love it for its strangeness, and how almost demonic she looks, as if having already imbibed a good deal of rum, and with this little fox gazing up at her seeming a bit afraid of what she might do! The wear to the surface just enhances the effect, perhaps making one want to swear off rum altogether! (And it also makes me imagine that whatever rum once filled this bottle had to have been very much a home brew, a la bathtub gin!) 7 1
