Early Bottle Architecture

We didn't enter at $10 per adult. But we did appreciate the external building which is worthy to see early bottle building. I know the Black Queen was once more high end bottle architecture, but this is no longer open to public. This bottle house may have got us as paying customers if entry was $4. The dog house was cute.

    So much stuff here to see
    This little bottle house is jammed packed with so much it’s amazing. Old bottles, collectables, newspaper articles & the creation of the gorgeous little cottage is certainly an eye opener. Old truck parked out the back makes for a lovely photo. $10 per person seemed ok to us to support local business.

    I’m not sure what to say
    This is an interesting place, mostly because there seems to be no rhyme nor reason for most of the stuff inside. Coated with a nice layer of protective dust the exhibits were really random. Having said that, I really enjoyed it. Even if it was to wonder why anyone would go to the trouble of assembling the “collection” seriously this is one of those places that is entertaining because of its eccentricity, see what you think I guess. The lady was super friendly and it seems that this is typical Lightning ridge, go figure.
