These antique glass bottles are filled with colored sand-- amazing, right?!
The sand is tightly packed, but not glued. They could take the artist 3 weeks, 3 months, sometimes a year to complete. Today I learned that the craft is called MARMOTINTO.
Jars pictured are: STAR & CRESCENT ~ THE ALSTON ~ SEALFAST SOLD BY - LIMA OHIO ~ THE VAN VLIET JAR OF 1881 ~ RUBY SPECIAL
