| Star Cross Antique Bottle |
Many know this photo well of Isabeau Grey's ethereal cross bottles at
Greyfreth. For the lucky person who wins this giveaway, Isa is going to remake
the Antique starburst mercury glass bottle shown in the photos just for them.
Approx 16" tall and valued at $525
The mercury glass bottle is a rare
antique from the late 1800s. it is NOT one of the reproductions that are out
now at Pottery Barn, etc.

| Collection of Star Cross Antique Bottles |
Held fast by rustic solder in weathered and timeworn hues, fiery mufti-faceted icicles of leaded crystal form a large starburst southern cross.
Crowning a rare, apothecary relic of antique, wavy mercury glass that has been
beautifully patinaed over time, this very special cross bottle is a breathtaking
display of crystal and antique mercury glass. Draped around the neck of the
bottle will be a graceful and beautiful embellishment similar to the one shown
in the photo.
The Winner can contact Isa to choose a color and style from the Antique Rosaries she has on hand.
