Wine and Water Separation. Chicago: August Roterberg, ca. 1910. Two metal canisters decorated with floral pattered accents made of metal, two claret glasses, and a claw-footed metal stand, and a glass decanter make up the apparatus. Wine and water are poured into the decanter from separate glasses, which are then covered with the tubes. The liquid now vanishes from the decanter, only to reappear in the two glasses, separated, just as it was at the outset. Tubes 8 " high. Very good.
