ARCWR

cross bottles
Approximate Overall Height: 16.25"

We love using these incredibly refractive, hand-cut, flat backed French pendalogue crystals in our handmade Cross Bottle Guy work, but they're increasingly harder and harder to find. Large and fiery, these mesmerizing prisms are dazzling with a lovely feminine shape that always makes for the most beautiful finished work.

Centered here on an antique rosette, and accented by our brilliant teardrops and smallest Russian octagonal crystals, this gorgeous cross is finished in our signature mercerized rust patina, and forever married to an antique embossed aqua pharmacy bottle.

The handsome silhouette of this bottle is the perfect companion for the feminine shape of the crystal cross which tops it. A beautiful aqua blue, made even more interesting by the decades of patina acquired from its many years buried underground, it is graced by a beautiful rosary with crucifix and medallion of Christ.

This bottle is embossed. It is embossed to read:
"B.O. & G. C. WILSON : BOTANIC DRUGGISTS : BOSTON, U.S.A."
  
Authentically Handmade. Unique. One of a Kind. Art.
