Another beautiful piece brought back to us by our world-traveling friend, this little pocket angel looks to be centuries old. We can not confirm how old it is, but we do know that we were lucky enough to have our friend bring us back only a few, and each is slightly different from the other. 

Forever married to a thick glass, antique pill bottle in an iridescent aqua, banded by a solder collar and finished in our signature mercerized rust patina, this little beauty should be a delightful addition to any collection. 

May she watch over you, and yours, bringing you peace and joy forever.

Another new crystal Cross Bottle Guy design for 2016, this beautiful handmade crystal cross is made from our brilliantly refractive teardrop crystals, centered on 4 square German crystals turned on edge, and embellished by our fire-polished Russian octagonal prisms. A gorgeous geometric sculpture with hand-cut refractory edges that will allow light to dance gracefully throughout the room.

Finished in our signature mercerized rust patina, this creation tops one a wonderfully unique antique pharmacy bottle. Originally aqua, the bitters that were kept in the bottle gave it an ethereal glaze, similar to antique carnival glass, with a stunning iridescence. Graced by an antique bone colored glass bead rosary with a medal of St. Ann, this gorgeous bottle is a great one to start or add to any Cross Bottle Guy collection.

Authentically Handmade. Unique. One of a Kind. Art.

Absolutely one of a kind, totally unique, and utterly gorgeous this massive crystal cross bottle is our largest crystal cross creation at Cross Bottle Guy to date! At a recent estate auction held in a large carriage house in the Hudson River Valley, we scored a thrilling lot of antique, full-lead, hand-cut and hand-polished chandelier prisms. Completely excited for the many possibilities, we were caught in awe with these 5 extra large, and absolutely stunning French pendalogue leaf-shaped crystals. Heavy and brilliant, the refractory of these hand-cuts is nothing short of mesmerizing. We knew that they absolutely had to be used together, and they have amassed to be the largest cross bottle we have ever had the joy of hand-making.

Centered on a large, radiant German octagonal crystal, and gracefully embellished by triads of our bohemian teardrop prisms, each so dazzling on its own, and further accented by our demure Russian octagonal crystals, the extra large French chandelier pendalogues have made fast and forever friends, and together, they create something remarkably lustrous and incredibly distinctive.

Finished in our signature mercerized rust patina, this incredible piece is forever married to a bottle that is just as rare. A gorgeous, generously large antique French glass apothecary jar used in the French South Quest Pharmacy, Pharmacie du Sud Quest, has a beautiful silhouette, and the most gorgeous amber color. Forget that "beer bottle brown" amber that you've seen in other places. This is truly a sun swept, honey laden, richly textured amber. A wash of color that you have to see to appreciate. Wrapped with two of our large solder collars, and hugged by the elegant and large beads of a vintage rosary, it's a piece you'll never find again.

Shown with other beautiful amber pieces from our handmade collection of unique art, which you can find here, this piece would be a wonderful showstopper on its own, or the perfect centerpiece of any Cross Bottle Guy collection. Made from only hand sourced materials both vintage and antique, this piece is imperfectly perfect, the most splendid example of our rough/luxe philosophy!

Authentically Handmade. Unique. One of a Kind. Art. Luxury for the Home.

At Cross Bottle Guy, we strive to bring you new and interesting, handmade one of a kind art each and every time we create one of our first quality cross bottles. Thanks to our medium, antique and vintage chandelier prisms, we have always been able to make multiple similar pieces for your enjoyment and to add to your collections. However, every so rarely, we happen to find a beautiful handful of unique crystals we doubt we'll ever find again. 

Realized here, in this exquisitely beautiful and refractive blue cross bottle, is that rare moment in your Cross Bottle Guy experience. Sourced at an antique market in Boston, Massachusetts these four antique hand-chiseled pentagonal crystals are pieces we'll likely never have the pleasure to happen upon again; therefore making this bottle a must have to your private collection! 

Made even more beautiful by our German square and Russian octagonal prisms, this piece of handmade art is forever joined to a beautiful cobalt blue antique medicine pill bottle. Still chalky on the inside from its many years tucked beneath the earth's surface, this bottle is the perfect vessel for our art, finished in our signature mercerized rust patina and ready for your beautiful home!
