In particular, the luminous bottle may comprise a bottle containing a volume configured to receive liquids, solids, any type of substance, or a combination thereof. For example, in certain embodiments, the luminous bottle may be configured to store consumable beverages, such as, but not limited to, champagne, wine, liquor, beer, soda, water, and/or other types of consumable beverages. The luminous bottle may include a base portion including a recessed portion, a luminous pad configured to adhere to a surface of the luminous bottle and configured to output light, an ornamental component attachable to the bottle and configured to secure onto the luminous pad, and a power compartment configured to secure within the recessed portion of the base portion. The power compartment may include a switch, which, when activated, may cause the luminous pad to emit light. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A luminous bottle, comprising: a volume configured to receive a consumable beverage;

wherein the power compartment includes an electrical wire connected to the power source, wherein the electrical wire is configured to connect with the luminous pad at a location behind a back portion of the ornamental component, wherein the electrical wire is concealed from view from a top and sides of the luminous bottle. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the light emitting components of the luminous pad comprise a light emitting diode, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl chloride, translucent plastic, a fluorophore, an ester, an electron-rich dye, or a combination thereof. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the switch is configured to be deactivated, and wherein when the switch is deactivated, the luminous pad ceases to emit the light. ### Claim 5 A luminous bottle, comprising: a volume configured to receive a consumable beverage; a securable opening located on a portion of the luminous bottle, wherein the consumable beverage is pourable through the opening such that the consumable beverage is contained within the volume of the luminous bottle; a luminous pad configured to communicate with a surface of the luminous bottle and configured to output light; an ornamental component configured to communicate with a portion of the luminous pad; a power compartment that includes a power source configured to deliver power to the light emitting components such that when a switch is activated, the luminous pad emits light; wherein the switch is configured to be pressed repeatedly in a sequence such that the light is emitted in accordance with the sequence. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the luminous pad further comprises a light emitting diode configured to change color. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the ornamental component is configured to be replaced with a different ornamental component. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the luminous pad is configured to be replaced with a different luminous pad having a different shape, a different thickness, a different type of light, or a combination thereof. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the ornamental component is configured to be detached from the luminous pad. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the luminous pad, the power compartment, and the ornamental component are attachable or detachable from the luminous bottle as a connected unit. ### Claim 11 A computerized method, comprising: providing a luminous bottle containing a consumable beverage for consumption by a user; receiving, at an acoustic, visual or thermal sensor of the luminous bottle, a respective ambient condition exceeding a threshold set in memory; activating, by a processor, a switch of the luminous bottle to deliver power to a luminous pad of the bottle; outputting light via the luminous pad of the luminous bottle to illuminate an outline of an ornamental component of the luminous bottle, wherein a degree of illumination is set by the processor dependent upon a degree of ambient condition sensed. ### Claim 12 A bottle, comprising: a securable opening located on a portion of the bottle, wherein a consumable beverage is pourable through the opening such that the consumable beverage is contained within a volume of the bottle; a luminous pad configured to adhere to a surface of the bottle and configured to output light; an ornamental component attachable to a portion of the luminous pad, wherein the ornamental component is sized smaller than the luminous pad, at least about a top and sides thereof, such that a portion of the luminous pad extends beyond the outer edges of the ornamental component, creating an outline around the ornamental component; a power compartment that includes a power source configured to deliver power to the luminous pad such that when a switch is activated, the luminous pad emits light, illuminating the outline around the ornamental component. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The bottle of claim 12, wherein the luminous pad and the ornamental component are similarly shaped as a king chess piece, and wherein the illuminated outline around the ornamental component creates a visual halo effect around the ornamental component. ### Claim 14 (depends on 1) The luminous bottle of claim 1, wherein the base portion includes a recessed portion, and wherein the power compartment is configured to secure within the recessed portion. ### Claim 15 A luminous bottle, comprising: a volume configured to receive a consumable beverage;
