    Description

    Excellent set of (3) tall and (5) shorter apothecary bottles from the late 19th century. Only VERY minor (barely noticeable) interior staining from long years of use in a San Francisco pharmacy. (This after much scrubbing on my part). Look closely at photos for
    very
    minor chips to 4 stoppers,
    very
    minor chips to 4 bottle rims, minor cracks to one label, very minor discoloration to one edge of one label, and a good-sized crack at the bottom of the Calamus bottle. Sounds like a lot when I list these small defects in full disclosure, but this set presents very handsomely with virtually all defects un-noticed, particularly when filled with colorful contents as I did for years on my kitchen counter.
    3 larger units, each: 3-1/2" diameter x 10-3/8"H
    5 smaller units, each: 2-7/8" diameter x 9"H
