"Working Drawing for a Gin Bottle Design" (commission from Bone-Dry Gin)
tracing paper and photographic copy of original design, 25 5/8 x 32 5/8

Gavin constructed the bottle from a chair-leg and chicken bones from dinner (Christmas 1998). Although attempts were made to create the bottle, inserting white glass into clear glass, to replicate the bones, the concept proved too complex and expensive. However, it is acknowledged to be a masterpiece of bottle art.
