I found these beautiful paste jars on Collard's Folly.
Not sure why my cat liked these, maybe because they contained fish paste almost a hundred year's ago.
Left & Right: Crosse & Blackwell's San-Chova fish paste, circa 1948 and 1927 (and we thought they only made tangy mayo!)
Far Right: BlackBerry "BlackScary" Meintjes
Small Peck's Anchovette jar, grenade shaped. Cira 1930-1940.
Apparently paste bottles and jars are a very common find when bottle digging or mud larking. They are my favourites, so many different shapes and sizes.
