Bottle Silk Dyeing prop. Los Angeles, F.G. Thayer [?], ca. 1930. Expertly turned wooden bottle with sliding false bottom, possibly for use in a silk dyeing or production trick. 9 ½" tall. Two small stress cracks near base, but overall good condition. Though similar in form and appearance to many expertly turned wooden items from the Thayer factory, the exact origin of this curious item is not certain.
