Large antique laboratory test tube made of actinic glass (brown glass) - Pharmacy
Period: Early 20th century
Large laboratory test tube made of brown blown glass, called actinic glass.
This actinic glassware was specifically tinted brown throughout to absorb ultraviolet rays and allow the pharmacist to protect and preserve highly photosensitive substances that would degrade in direct light.
The tube has a well-marked flared lip and ends with a round hemispherical bottom.
Its unusual dimensions make it a model of a beautiful presence.
