[Ansteorra] "Period Containers"

[Stefan li Rous]

Tivar Moondragon mentioned:
> If you want to get a little more intense, then go for the wineskin,
> period-style bottles (probably ceramic rather than glass, because
> glass was *expensive* throughout mist of our period) maybe a drinking
> horn, goblet or leather jack (depending on when and where your
> persona is from) rather than a glass-bottomed fake pewter mug.

Here are a few Florilegium files that be of interest to those  
thinking about using more period drinking containers.
