A fascinating collection of ten antique French apothecary bottles, dating from the late 19th to the early 20th century. Each piece tells its own story, with a beautifully aged mix of glass, original paper, etched labels, and a variety of cork, glass, or metal stoppers. The collection includes traditional glass pharmacy jars, some with gilt-labeled fronts, showcasing classic French typography and turn-of-the-century pharmaceutical styling.
Perfect for styling on shelves, in a bathroom, or as a conversation-starting accent for a collector, these bottles capture the spirit of a bygone apothecary tradition with authentic patina and character that cannot be replicated.
