Highlights
Rare antique apothecary bottle in deep cobalt blue glass, dating from the late 19th century, circa 1880–1900.
The original black and gold paper label reads “Tinctura Erythr: Coca”, a historic pharmaceutical designation referring to a coca tincture.
The bottle retains its matching ground glass stopper and displays attractive irregularities in the glass around the neck, base and underside, consistent with antique manufacture. The deeply recessed base and slightly uneven glass give the piece a particularly authentic period character.
The ornate label is richly decorated with pharmaceutical imagery and has developed a beautiful aged patina, with wear and small losses consistent with its age.
A highly decorative and unusual object for a collection of antique pharmacy, medical history, scientific instruments or cabinet of curiosities.

Condition
Good antique condition. Age-related wear, marks and small losses to the paper label. Irregularities and variations in the glass are part of its antique manufacture. Please examine all photographs carefully.
