Description

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.

19th-century mouth-blown glass

This large-capacity jar was a storage jar intended for stockpiling.

Height: 20.5cm - Diameter: 9cm
