Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

An onion bottle is a type of hand-blown glass vessel characterised by a squat, bulbous body and a short neck, commonly produced in Britain and Europe during the late seventeenth and eighteenth centuries for storing liquids and apothecary concoctions.

These vessels were hand-blown using unrefined iron-rich sand, producing thick, dark green or olive-brown glass, and featured an indented kick-up base created by the glassmakers pontil rod.

Authentic pieces display asymmetrical hand-blown forms, pontil scars on a deep kick-up base, natural air bubbles or inclusions within the glass matrix, and signs of hand-applied gilt or painted labelling.

Display the bottle on a sideboard, mantelpiece, or near a window where natural light can pass through the dark green glass to accentuate its form and material depth.

Clean gently with lukewarm water and a mild non-abrasive soap, avoiding harsh chemicals, submerged soaking, or scrubbing over delicate historical paint or gilt surfaces.
