Teeny Things in Glass



I bought this cute vintage bottle ornament some time ago and although I look at it every day it wasn't until last night that I took the time and really sat down to peer inside. Isn't it just beautiful?

    I have always wanted a bottle with a boat inside, and I have never seen anything like that! It's really very sweet :)

    It's lovely. I had a bottle with a little ballerina in it that used to dance when you wound her up...I don't know what happened to it but seeing your bottle brought back many fond memories :)

    A-MAZING!! It's fascinating the work that goes into creating these stories in a bottle too. Definitely for the patient people.

    It's possible that the bottle is from the Philippines where I am based. It features the nipa hut which is the traditional Philippine home from centuries ago. Quite a number of such bottles are still being sold but like most of your readers, I have no idea how they can cram that diorama into a little bottle :-)
