Set of 4 antique homeopathic vials (l17)

Set of four small, clear glass antique pharmacy bottles, preserved with their original cork stoppers and printed or handwritten labels. The visible mentions - "Platina n°100", "Silicea", "Bell 30" (Belladonna in dilution), as well as other abbreviated notations - clearly refer to homeopathic preparations used between the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The presence of powdered milk sugar (lactose) in some bottles confirms their use for preparing medicinal pellets. A typical set from pharmacies and laboratories of the period, both scientific and aesthetic, highly sought after for collection or a cabinet of curiosities.
