<p>[QUOTE="MrNate, post: 9504391, member: 5515"]Can we see the inside of the cap please? Honestly I would be guessing at straws here. I do feel based on it's very ornate design this wouldn't be food related (ie salt shaker etc); I'm leaning towards smell/perfume type of vessel as others have suggested. I would like to better understand if the cap is sealed or if the holes we see on the outside are allowing whatever is in the crystal to emit a smell or not. ALso I think the section [USER=63]@cxgirl[/USER] circled looks like a rudamentary latch system to keep the lid on (ie turn the lid and lift straight up to remove the lid).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
