Miniature bitters bottles - Are They Valuable?

edited December 2016 in Question and Answer
Hi! I have 5 bitter bottles and 4 of them have stoppers, but they all say "Made in Taiwan" on the bottom. Are they worth anything?

  • Hi and welcome, I call these "adaptive reproductions" - they are similar to 19th century bottles but have been changed size-wise, color-wise and to some extent embossing wise. In other words, there are some elements of original bottles in them but they are also modern in other respects, including the fact that they are machine made.

    One will see a small market for them as decorative items - you will see them on etsy and ebay for a few dollars a piece...
