ANTIQUE AMBER GLASS APOTHECARY TINCTURE BOTTLE
WITH OCTAGONAL STOPPER (c. 1900s-1910s)

PRICE: £18

An authentic Edwardian cylindrical amber glass pharmacy bottle, standing at 14.5cm tall. Expertly designed to shield light-sensitive chemical solutions or botanical tinctures from atmospheric degradation, this specimen features a striking, large oval white cartouche, presenting a stark, minimalist antique aesthetic that contrasts beautifully with the rich honey-amber glass.
The jar is complete with its original, matching amber glass stopper, featuring a classic flat-top design with eight decorative, hand-finished facets forming its distinct octagonal silhouette. The base of the bottle is cleanly embossed with the historic factory mould serial number "365".

Condition:
Offered with genuine historic character and utility wear. The neck rim shows an external flea-bite chip and a small internal hairline fracture that is visible only in transparency and remains completely smooth to the touch, leaving the structural stability intact. The stopper likewise features a minor internal flake at its base while remaining functionally smooth and free-moving. A highly atmospheric piece with wonderful old-world patina, ideal for an alchemy-themed shelf arrangement or a layered Scientifica display.

  • Height: 14.5cm
