Description from the seller

For sale is this decorative 5-piece set of antique apothecary stand vessels made from beautiful amber glass. The bottles are estimated to date from 1875–1890 and are an absolute eye-catcher for lovers of historical medical objects, apothecary décor, or as stylish vintage decoration. All bottles feature the sought-after original faceted glass stopper plugs as well as well-preserved labels with the classical Latin medication names. Set details & dimensions: 1x large bottle (height: approx. 21 cm): Inscription: Carbo Ligni Pulv. (charcoal powder – historically used, among other things, for stomach/digestive complaints) 4x small bottles (height: each approx. 15 cm): Inscriptions incl.: Rhiz. Calami Pulv. (calamus root powder) Inscriptions incl.: Amygdal. Amar. (Bitter almond – formerly used for distillates and essential oils) Condition: The bottles are in very good, age-appropriate original condition with a beautiful patina. The amber glass partly shows the typical small air inclusions that attest to the authentic production of that era. The labels are enamel and show no damage.

They are packed with the utmost care and shipped insured.
