These are dug bottles from a bottle dump dating from the mid 1800\'s to the 1950\'s, with the majority of the finds dating in the 1930\'s.

Most of these bottles have spent around three days in a tumbler with upwards of three different cutting and polishing compounds in an attempt to restore them to their former beauty. I have also spent many hours attempting to identify their original labels, sourcing pictures from the net, photoshopping them, then printing and applying these custom labels.

In a few cases, I have not been able to correctly identify the original label/contents of a bottle (sometimes because there aren\'t any makers marks but otherwise mostly due to the fact that there aren’t complete comprehensive databases out there forallof the makers marks) and have therefore employed some artistic license to approximate the label. If you happen to know for a fact what a particular bottle held, please pm me, as I do appreciate history and knowledge and will surely add that information to the databases I am compiling.

I learned once that an artist shouldn’t sell themselves short because onlytheyknow the amount of effort that went into a creation, and because of that, there are no “best offers” on these bottles. I have been researching, cleaning, photoshopping, and sourcing materialsfor over two yearsto the tune of five hundred bottles thus far, with more on the horizon. I have purchased tumbling compounds, cork stoppers, screw tops, a new printer, ink, label paper, brushes, acid, andmanyother supplies just to get these to their current states. I even had to upgrade my computer to support the workload of the photoshopping. So please, do not ask me if you can get a price reduction. If you love a particular bottle, love it for the work I have put into it and the novelty of owning a piece of history.Iam PROUD to say that my work is featured intwomuseums, one upcomingHollywoodTV show, an upcoming movie,a Broadway play, and multiple personal collections and work offices,so if these entities can recognize the effort I have put into these restorations, I ask that you do also. Thank you.

If youhappen toreceive a broken bottle, please immediately take pictures and send them to me in an message. I will do my best to make it right. Please allow me this before opening any cases against me. I am not in business to lose business so I will ship you a new bottle ifit broke during shipment.If I don\'t have any more of that bottle type,you may select an equally priced and equal volume bottle from the rest of my store, ora refund will be made to youin full.
