PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MAN'S CHEST (2006) – Tia Dalma Production Used Breakaway Bottle
Original production-used breakaway bottle from Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006).
This bottle originates from a group of props identified as belonging to Tia Dalma, the mysterious sea witch portrayed by Naomie Harris. According to the production inventory information accompanying the prop, the bottles were stored in a bin labeled "Tia Dalma" and later catalogued by Disney during the production of Dead Men Tell No Tales, identifying them as originating from an earlier Pirates of the Caribbean film.
The bottle features a cork sealed with dark red wax and contains aged liquid and organic-looking contents, perfectly matching the mystical aesthetic surrounding Tia Dalma's workshop and occult practices. As a breakaway prop, it was specifically manufactured to resemble real glass while being designed for safe use during filming.
Tia Dalma is one of the franchise's most enigmatic and important characters, later revealed to be the human form of the sea goddess Calypso. Props directly associated with her environment are far less common than weapons, coins, or naval artifacts from the series, making this a particularly distinctive production piece.
While not attributed to a specific scene or screen-matched appearance, this remains an authentic production-used artifact connected to Tia Dalma's collection of bottles and magical curiosities.
