I took the first photograph of the bottom of an acient bottle. They found this bottle in the ground when they were digging there to make room for a new railway. The bottle is probably from around 1780. The neck of the bottle is broken. That is why I could buy it for only 25 euro's. I found the little bottle on the second image in Italy near the beach. Weather and sand gave this little bottle beautiful colors. Another treasure in my cupboard. I hope you enjoy both of them. Image copyright: Thea Walstra
