PRICE: £22
A classic Late Victorian to Edwardian cylindrical green glass pharmacy bottle, offering a pure curiosity cabinet aesthetic. This simple, elegant round-bodied specimen stands as a raw, unadorned testament to old-world laboratory and apothecary practices. The bottle features its original, contrasting clear glass ground stopper, which is completely stuck and permanently sealed by time and chemical fusion. Trapped deep within the vessel, a fascinating layer of dark, black organic product residue remains at the bottom, offering a wonderful, mysterious glimpse into its genuine historical and chemical past. Condition: Offered without a paper label, the green glass body is in excellent structural condition with no cracks or chips. The glass holds a beautiful, deep, organic green hue, showing only light surface wear and minor manufacturing imperfections consistent with its age and utilitarian history. A highly atmospheric and authentic 'found object' piece, perfect for bringing a touch of old-world alchemy or Scientifica charm to a private gallery shelf display. Dimensions:
