|
|
So, my girlfriend was wandering around 'Poundland', a retailer in the UK that sells things for £1.
She spots this:
Naturally, extremely excited, I ask her to buy two...so £2.
Below shows my bottle on the left that I got from the USA and the right is the one from Poundland at £1.
And here they are with my green and original bottle.
Now that's damn good value!!! OK, so the neck is a little different, but they are clearer!!! So I'm gonna be making four now |

What is the name I would search for? Was it originally an olive oil bottle? |

They usually go by the name of "vintage decanter bottle" or "spanish bottle" or just "decorative bottle"... Vintage ones can be found on eBay and Etsy and sometimes newer version turn up...
Also look at thrift shops, arts and crafts stores, garage sales, 1$ stores etc...
The artwork for this bottle has been beautifully recreated by SSB and is very generously made available here:

I spent months looking for that bottle.
If you really struggle to get one, I can buy one here and ship to you?? |

Hey, all. I have been conversing with a seller on Etsy about her listing. As you can see, the left bottle is our bottle but, obviously, the wrong color. She had a clear version but she is out of them. She is also checking to see if the amber color can be removed as she says it's just a type of paint. I wiill let you know if I hear back from her.
