Mercury Chalk – Treatment for Syphilis

Antique amber glass bottle, with a boxwood and cork stopper.

Handwritten label, pen inscription ‘Mercurial Chalk’, neat calligraphy with its thick and thin strokes.

Bottom band ‘TO BE SEPARATED’, instructing the pharmacist to store it in the cabinet for toxic substances, the famous poison cabinet.

It comes from the former cellar-laboratory of a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles had not been moved from the shelves since the late 1950s. The cellar had served as a medical analysis laboratory and a laboratory for the pharmacy’s compounded preparations from 1900 until around 1950.
