This bottle contains a saw horse with a buck saw hanging on the side. On the side of the saw horse is a wooden axe. On top of the saw horse is a three mast ship with very simple and minimum rigging. The bottle is sealed with a long wooden shaft with a metal pin going through the shaft the bottle inside the bottle making it impossible to remove the stopper.
