For many years these little bottles have turned up on Trade Me and at Auctions.
They sell well, as people sell them as Crown Lynn, however they were not made by Crown Lynn.
They always make me squint and scratch my head to try to work out what they were, so I did comparison photos and the story tells itself as the differences stand out clearly.

This little bottle is the same shape as the Orzel small Ti Toki bottle, but this variation has had a screw top addition and you can even see where it has been added.

I have an idea where and when this happened and will continue investigating.

This is the new breed bottle we are discussing:

This is the new breed variation beside an Orzel small Ti Toki bottle:

Finally the variation, beside a Crown Lynn small Ti toki bottle and the differences are very obvious:

Adding some info from Tom Clark Jnr to say that the Ti Toki bottles were once fired and the inside was glazed with Roadmarker leadless glaze from 109 frit and zircon.
This was a white glaze and is on the thread as well and is another way of telling that it was made by Crown Lynn.
