This is wild sci. I have no clue other than it looks like an old style medicine bottle.

The challenge object is not the bottle but the other object.

I am also boggled by these clues. Can't see the connection between the first photos, showing a brown thing (attached), with the last two, which looks like something of just glass?

Ah, a thought. Is it a stopper for the glass container? With a ball of glass as a handle.
 
Here's the final photo. No stampede to the send button,now.

You've got it stranding! The only difference is it's a disc attached to the stopper portion,not a glass ball. These bottles and stoppers were made by the T. C. Wheaton Co of Millville NJ. They Were used in the chemistry lab in my high school up until the 1980's.

Your turn,stranding.

Clever cropping for that :-) Almost impossible to make sense of, till it clicks. I remember that bad eggs smell in the labs at school (it was sulphuric acid, wasn't it?)

It's now 1.30 am here so I must pass. The challenge is open to anyone who would like to take it on.
 
Jumping in after a misguided start in the wrong thread.

What is this? The image is part of the whole. I need the whole and how it works.

Sink drain cover? Meant to catch odd bits from going down the drain.
Decorative one.

It's not a drain that's being covered but liquid is involved.

Is the liquid coffee? (seeing as you need it just now :-))
Part of a coffee machine? Expresso type?
 
Yes it's one if those "brew one cup" at a time machines. You put a coffee cartridge in the top and presto.
I find it's not very cost effective based on price per serving and not friendly to the environment
because of the throw-away cartridges.

Over to you stranding for the next challenge.

What are we looking at here?
What does it represent?

Where is it?
What is the occasion?

More clues available later but need input first...

It looks like a fancy colouring job in someone's hair.
