Lot 128: A set of five late 19th-century glass apothecary jars with faceted stoppers and gilt labels Height 26cm

A set of five cylindrical clear glass pharmacy jars, featuring ground necks and matching faceted cut-glass diamond pattern stoppers. Each jar is fitted with a curved glass-protected label, often referred to as a lorgnette style, featuring a gilt foil background, red borders, and black block-capital lettering. The jars bear the following literal transcriptions on their labels: TINCT: MYR: ET BORAX, TINCT: QUILLAIÆ, SPIRIT: ROSMAR:, TINCT: KRAMER:, and ESS: LIMONIS. These labels correspond to pharmaceutical preparations including Tincture of Myrrh and Borax, Tincture of Quillaia, Spirit of Rosemary, Tincture of Krameria, and Essence of Lemon. The style and nomenclature are consistent with late 19th to early 20th-century British pharmaceutical equipment.
