DOMESTIC
shipping charges
INCLUDE
insurance. We have enjoyed shipping our items all over the world and are happy to offer most of our items to international buyers. Yet insuring International parcels is very expensive so PLEASE NOTE; we do
NOT
insure International orders unless winning buyer specifically requests this and we are able to provide an insurance quote. We do not falsify information on the Customs Form, such as a price other than what the actual purchase price is, so please do not request us to do so. We ship several times a week and send payment acknowledgments and shipping confirmations. Your prompt payment will assure a very quick turn-around time.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
If our shipping charge is much more than the actual shipping cost, we will refund the excess so what
YOU
pay for shipping/insurance is very close to, if not exactly, the
ACTUAL
shipping costs! This is especially important for foreign buyers to know as most of our foreign shipping charges are rough estimates
.
These old 'picture' dose glasses are getting harder to find as they are so popular they are ending up in collections instead of in circulation.  The rarer ones seem to be the western ones or states and towns that did not produce a lot of antique embossed bottles.   This one is a spectacular example, the detail on the little owl is impressive, you can see every feather on him and even his eyes look like flowers as they have detailed little 'pedals' all the way around them!
The base just has a large letter "C" on it, no other embossing.   The close up picture of the owl, the 2nd picture, tells the story,
