specialising in South Australian antique bottles
SITE UPDATEIts been a while....Finally after 2 years i have got my act together to update this page. Still working on updates for the other pages, if your interested in bottles or insulators and not sure what's for sale please ask. Much continues to happen with in this great hobby of ours and many new and interesting finds continue to turn up. On a personal note i have now completed a display case for a large proportion of my collection, now just to put them ginger beers and round enders in something. Further the bottledepot.com now has a fan page on facebook, check it out as this is where i will also post items for sale, and discuss anything bottle related with the masses.

I started collecting when I was around 8 years old, during that time and even now people aske me what the interest is in bottles. Many towns and cities had companies making anything from drinks to preserves, poisons to cures, and all advertised their item by labels or embossing on the container, and that is where my interest lies. By preserving these items we are indeed preserving part of our history
