Gelatine
Antique pharmacy bottle - Wide-mouth apothecary jar.
It comes from the old cellar-laboratory of a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles had not been moved from the shelves since the late 1950s!
There is still some product left inside. The gelatine inside has a chalky texture and is scented; it smells quite nice.
This preparation, made from scented, chalky gelatine, was used in the pharmacist’s formulations, such as cough drops or throat lozenges, chest rubs or hand creams.
