Jeff is a former professional magician of 30 years. In 1992, while reading a copy of Magic Magazine, he came across an article about a man who had recently passed away named Harry Eng. Harry was the creator of, and known as the master of, Impossible Bottles.

After reading the article about Harry, Jeff became fascinated and obsessed with wanting to learn his art form. Unfortunately, Harry took most of his secrets to the grave with him. There were only a hand-full of people who knew about the art form. Jeff knew none of these people.

Yet, that didn’t deter Jeff. He spent the next three and a half years breaking hundreds of bottles and ruining hundreds upon hundreds of decks of cards, and other various items, trying to discover the secret of Impossible Bottles. Then, one day, he did it. He put his first item into a bottle – a wrapped package of Lava bar soap. That was just the beginning. Soon, he was putting decks of cards, golf balls, baseballs, packs of cigarettes, tennis balls, scissors, padlocks and even a pair of high-top Converse gym shoes into every day normal glass bottles.

When people see Jeff’s Impossible Bottles their first response out of their mouths is “No way. You must have cut the bottle.” The truth is the bottles aren’t cut at all. Jeff likes to tell people that Impossible Bottles are like a ship in a bottle but on steroids. In fact, there are four rules to this art form.

1. The bottles have to be ordinary, off-the-grocery-store-shelf bottles.
2. The bottles can not be heated, cooled, cut or manipulated in any way, shape of form.
3. Every item that goes into the bottle must go in through the bottle neck.
4. Every item, once inside the bottle, must still be usable.

The art of Impossible Bottles is very rare, secretive and time-intensive. It is probably for these reasons why there are only about 24 people world-wide who have mastered the art form. Jeff is not only one of those people, but he is also considered to be one of the very best.

Jeff’s artistry has garnered him clients throughout the United States and worldwide. His bottles have attracted clients in Australia, Austria, Germany, France, Japan, England and beyond. Each bottle, and 3D cut deck, is individually made and proudly signed for authenticity.

Each Impossible Bottle and 3D cut deck is meant to be a conversation starter, to make people think, and to be one of the most unique and personalized gifts one could ever receive. If you’re looking for that gift that someone will never forget who they received it from, then give the gift of Bottle Magic.
