Description
Up for sale is a classic antique clear glass apothecary shelf bottle, complete with its original matching ground-glass hollow stopper.
Standing approximately 3.5 inches tall, this unlabelled apothecary bottle features heavy clear molded glass with a wide mouth and a tightly fitted ground-glass stopper. Bottles of this style were standard fixtures on pharmacy dispensary shelves, used by apothecaries and physicians to store dry chemicals, pills, or liquid extracts before applying custom paper labels.
Historical & Collectible Significance:
Unmarked apothecary and chemistry shelf bottles are quintessential pieces of Victorian and early-20th-century medical history. They look wonderful displayed on their own, illuminated in a window, or utilized as a blank canvas for custom vintage-style labeling in a cabinet of curiosities or apothecary display.
Condition:
Good antique condition with untouched estate patina, light interior/exterior dust, and normal wear consistent with age. The ground-glass stopper fits the neck nicely. Please review all photos for exact condition and details.
