Default Displacement Plus Ballast ?

I just went and looked at it. It is much smaller than I remembered.
Of course when I was little it was seemed much bigger. I'm guessing
it's only 15-20 gallons--it is hard to judge because of the odd shape.

I remember I could not pick it up when I was little and I managed to
pick up it with two fingers just now. I can encircle it with my arms and
clasp one hand with the other. The spout is about knee height with the
top above my knee and the necked down area just below my knee..

I sent you a text message with a picture Doug. It is sitting on a
piano stool next to a piano to give you an idea of the size.

If it was full of wine, it would take a big party to empty it.

Have one of those at home. Tried to sell it in yard

Ours is made from very dark green glass. The size
is about right.


If it was full of wine you could sell it!

Or have a great party.

Also makes a great containment device for unruly kids.
