Topsy Turvy Bottles – Classic Gravity-Defying Magic Trick

two sizes Vintage and hard to find - The Topsy Turvy Bottles is a timeless and visual magic routine that never fails to amaze audiences! This classic effect uses two bottles that appear to defy gravity as liquid mysteriously switches places from one bottle to the other—right before the audience’s eyes.

• Classic setup: Two bottles—one empty, one filled with liquid—are shown clearly to the audience.
• Visible demonstration: The magician pours the liquid between bottles to prove their authenticity.
• Misdirection & magic: Using theatrical gestures, a cloth, or wand, the magician covers the bottles and performs the switch unseen.
• Gravity-defying reveal: When the cover is removed, the bottles have impossibly swapped—the once-empty bottle is now full, and the full bottle is now empty!
• Repeatable performance: The sequence can be performed multiple times for added amazement.

The secret lies in specially constructed bottles and the magician’s timing, presentation, and misdirection. Perfect for parlor, stage, or educational magic demonstrations, the Topsy Turvy Bottles routine is a true example of magical engineering and showmanship at its finest.
