Description
Pair of rare, hard-to-find,  gigantic antique apothecary jars used as a store display in a French pharmacy. They are mouth-blown glass and have been painted and gilded by hand from the inside, now that's a trick! The inscriptions read "Belladona" (a source of atropine, scopolomine and hyoscyamine) and "Papaver" (opium poppy). France circa 1880
