Oh yea! My collection started with those little alcohol bottles. They're so joyful! Unfortunately my ex threw them out when we broke up so I had to start all over. This time I decided to keep an open mind and accept all kind of bottles.
My pride is a vintage bottle of boonekamp. Found it in a flea market. The seller told me it was at least 50 year old. I also love old things so.. it cost me something like 2 bucks back then. It was open but had a little bit of alcohol left. The second is a extra small tabasco bottle, holds only 0.7 ml! That one is sealed.
I don't have a standard really, if it's something enjoyable then it's long gone. Jack Daniels & absolut, grey goose bottles all emptied during weak moments lol. If it's something like a herb oil or tabasco I keep it sealed. I appreciate the bottle more than what's inside anyways so.
Do you keep yours sealed? Got a favourite one?
I have to say it's been a while since I last looked at them and I'm not even sure where they are.... but I kept them pretty much sealed, the alcohol has long vapourised out of most of them anyway. There's one I quite like, I don't know what beverage it held originally but it's like a tiny wine bottle with a small basket around it that goes around the whole bottle.
I can't describe it very well but hopefully you know what I mean.
I think I know what you mean. I've never seen a miniature wine bottle, let alone one with its own basket. Sounds super cool. So cool that I'll try to buy one online. Thanks for that!
