A nice example of its type the bottle contains a religious scene. This one depicts the crucifixion of Christ and has symbolic objects of a cross and a ladder and other tools that were associated with the passion of Christ and submerged in water or vinegar. As the pieces were sometimes associated with workers in the mining and construction industries, some of the tools reflect these communities. On part of the cross can be found the name A Walker Aug 9 1916. The piece has its original cork.
