Winch rack

The oil set is complete; one of the containers is cracked. It is made of two similar containers, soldered together with glass pellets. The containers are cylindrical in shape, with straight walls and rims, which also have a ribbon ring on the outside. They have rounded bases and flat bottoms, with the exception of the center, which is domed and shows a trace of pontil. The bottom of each is lined with glass pellets (3 in all) to stabilize the object. The oil set has two vertical handles, each lined with two empty vertical sections. Their upper end rests on the rim of the containers, before being folded back on itself to form a poucier. Their lower end is curved upwards, before being folded back on itself and resting on the outer wall of the containers ; The decoration is molded and shaped. Moulded decoration is visible on the walls of the containers and on the handles, while shaped decoration is visible on the handles. The outer and inner walls of the vessels are adorned with vertical wavy ribs, starting below the bottom and ending in a plain ribbon below the outer rim. The vertical handles are two-lobed. Their upper end has been folded back on itself to form a deformed oval poucier, with a textured surface.
