History of makers of Ti Toki Style bottles

Orzel 1979 – 1984

Crown Lynn 1984 – 1985

Stewart Pottery made them for a few years in the late 1980’s
They were difficult to ensure that the liquor did not seep through, so the early bottles we sealed with food quality hot wax. Hemara made the molds for us. and they were brown or green glaze.
