A Rare Cut Glass Apothecary Bottle

This example of a French apothecary bottle is very special. The color of the glass is most unique. A striking bright and light blue throughout the bottle, stopper and the top. The shape of the bottle, with its flattened oval and squared sides is very unusual and would have helped when handling the bottle which contained oil. A complete label in excellent condition is very special. Notably shaped as a shield with gilt outline. France mid 19th century. 11 inches by 4 inches by 2 3/4 inches
