Description

Antique wooden advertising case for Mont Blanc - Rumilly condensed milk - Drawer

Found in Parisian cellars that served as laboratories and storage rooms for pharmacists to prepare their prescriptions from 1900 to 1950.

It was used to store products, glass bottles, etc.

This box is no longer just a transport container, it has been adopted as a piece of furniture.

It was adapted to fill a gap in the basement's professional furniture. With a handle identical to the other original drawers in the pharmacy, it blended in for decades among the rows of storage units, holding preparations and herbal remedies. The crate was transformed into a drawer, but upside down, hence the upside-down inscriptions.

Period: Circa 1920–1940 – The interwar period, when ‘Lait Mont Blanc’ (founded in 1917) became an essential part of pharmaceutical supplies due to its purity.

Dimensions: 49x33.5cm Height: 18cm Weight: 2.8kg

The box is period with signs of wear, drips, stains, etc. The bottom shelf is loose. See photos
