Original British 19th Century Military Copper Funnel Board of Ordnance Stamped U.S. Equipment while embarked aboard USS ConstellationOriginal Item: Only One Available. A most interesting item, most likely used by the Royal Navy for possibly decanting wine, either from the barrel into a bottle or serving decanter. The lip of the funnel heavily stamped with a Broad Arrow over B. O., indicating Military use from the Board of Ordnance. There is a small hole in the edge of the funnel presumably for hanging on a hook when not in use. This was recently acquired from a country house sale
