Miniature alcohol bottles have been produced for more than a century. Originally used as samples and travel bottles, they later became popular with hotels, airlines and distilleries.
By the 1970s and 1980s, miniature bottle collecting had become a recognised hobby throughout the UK, Europe and North America. Distilleries began producing special editions aimed specifically at collectors.
Today, collectors appreciate miniature bottles for their history, design, rarity and connection to famous brands and events.
New bottle histories, rarity guides and collector information will be added regularly as Miniature Treasures continues to grow.
