Last item is a night stand and the "fridge" ( enameled metal or porcelain) is for storing the chamber pot. From late 18 hundreds or early 19 hundreds although the style is Louis XVI.
The reason for match holders was not fully explained here. Very early matches were very dangerous compared to modern ones. The chemical make up included some poisonous chemicals and they were a struke anywhere tyoe. The could even light from being dropped or rubbing against each other in the box.
Items like this with plungers could easily perforate the rectum, and controlling pressure was difficult. Hence current enema bags and plastic blunt tips. Decades ago, I gave chicken broth clysters to seniors not eating or drinking well. And running sterile fluid under the skin to be slowly absorbed, called hypodermoclysis. God, I’m old.
If the people selling it knew what it was they would have to charge more for it. So I guess they figure if they buy it not knowing, they can get it cheaper. Lol
My mom had oil candles, they were wine glasses with a float and a wick........ What kind of idiot puts that type of thing on the top of a TV and DOESN'T expect for the kids to knock it down the back?????

Curious as to why it would have a lock on it.
@@cmtippens9209the drawer has a lock, the area for the pot does not.
@@capers72424 - Thanks 😊
@@cmtippens9209 the pot is pretty safe without lock and key. 😜
Exactly, i have two of them at home, but i store other things in the compartment.
That bellows box might have been the inspiration for the ventilator system in The Great Escape.

WOW sounds almost as bad as EV batteries.
Safety matches separated the volatile components to the match head and the striker panel on the side of the box making them much safer.
So a vide poche is an early EDC dump tray.
I disagree with the first items. They don't look like enemas. They don't have plungers. They are most likely oilers of some sort.

It’s hilarious and annoying that the submitters try to guess what their object is. They’re usually so very wrong.
I know, I keep waiting for one that says "I think it's a tea pot"... "It's a tea pot"...
that night stand one, it is a place to put a chamber pot, what was used before toilets were everywhere
My grandmother used that even in the 70ies.
Great videos. Keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Haha yes a grease gun 🔫 😂
He was kind of correct.
Why do people buy things at a thrift store without knowing what the item is?
Isn't it better to know what you buy first.
If everyone had that opinion we'd still be flinging poo from the trees......
HAVE YOU NO SENSE OF ADVENTURE???????????

Where can i go to submit an item, or at least get info on submitting something?
A matchbox holder.
My parents had one of those eternal flame candle from Germany.
