Can you give us some kind of idea of the size of those decanters and bottles please? I have a vintage pale yellow ceramic bottle which is only about 4 or 5" high. Those ones on the right look 'uge! The glass perfume bottle is so cool. What a great find!

Take care - Trader Jim (Make mine a Mai-Tai).

The big boys are 28cm high, the glass one is 14cm, and the little ceramic one is 12cm. The glass version is the only one I bought in the Cooks - the rest were scored in NZ.
I saw the one bongo bought, but from memory it was around $25 (maybe cheaper duty-free?) which was a little pricey, especially after the amount we had already spent on paintings, jewellery, pearls, carvings and a tattoo for me! Way too many temptations in Rarotonga! The perfume factory on the old interior ring road (Avarua) has the empty glass bottles in a range of colours for $10 (NZ) each.
PS: post yours Jim!
