Curiosity box: pharmacy bottles and tubes (c6)

An antique box containing a set of pharmacy glass vials and tubes, carefully arranged in a small wooden box (without a lid). The set is distinguished by the repetition of handwritten labels mentioning "Bellotti," associated with numbering and dosages, suggesting a series of homogeneous preparations from the same laboratory or protocol. The preserved contents – powders, granules, and residues – as well as the slightly patinated glass and old cork stoppers, form a very legible, almost methodical set, typical of early 20th-century pharmaceutical practices. A coherent and immediately decorative 13-piece composition.
