There’s something irresistible about old apothecary bottles. This one is a rich amber colour that absolutely glows when the light catches it. The glass is thick and slightly uneven in places — made by hand or at least by a process that hadn’t quite smoothed out all the character.
The ground-glass stopper fits snugly and still seals well. There’s a faint embossed marking on the base, but no paper label surviving.
Use it as a vase for a single stem, fill it with something colourful, or simply let it sit on a windowsill and do its thing with the afternoon light. At this price, honestly, buy two.
