Tear Bottles
Tear Bottles The tear bottle tradition has endured for nearly 3000 years. During ancient Roman times, mourners captured their tears and buried them with loved ones to show affection and respect. Tear Bottles reappeared during the 19th century Victorian era, when mourners collected their tears in long cylindrical vials or small bottles decorated with silver and pewter. Bereavement would end when the tears evaporated, but the bottle remained as a token of eternal devotion. Each bottle is about 2 inches tall and comes with a story card which tells the tear bottle history and tradition.
