Antique pharmacy vase - Exhibition jar - Herbalist jar
In Crystal cut with flaps and star-shaped base
Period: Late 19th century (Napoleon III period / Beginning of the Third Republic)
Prestigious pharmacy exhibition bottle (commonly called vase to show) in heavy crystal.
Designed for the decoration of ceremonial display cases in pharmacies at the end of the 19th century.
This ceremonial piece is distinguished by a remarkable work of grinding: a crown of cut panels (facets) on the upper shoulder and a superb radiant star carved under its base, a traditional technique that allows the brand of pontil to be masked while beautifully capturing light.
The collar is smooth on the inside, indicating that it was displayed open on the counter or sealed with a cork (as here) to display dried raw materials or medicinal plants.
A piece of great elegance and superb transparency, witness the golden age of Parisian office decorations.
Height: 19 cm - Base diameter: 8 cm
Comes from a former basement-laboratory of a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles and other utensils had not moved from the shelves since the late 1950s. The basement had served as a medical analysis laboratory and a laboratory for the pharmacy's magisterial preparations from 1900 until around 1950.
