Set of four glass pharmacy bottles, preserved with their original cork stoppers and old handwritten labels. The inscriptions refer to plant or pharmaceutical preparations (seeds, powders, plant fragments), typical of late 19th and early 20th century herbalism and pharmacy practices. The presence of still visible contents reinforces the authentic and evocative character of these pieces, which bear witness to artisanal medicine where each preparation was carefully made and preserved. A particularly decorative and sought-after set for a cabinet of curiosities or specialized collection.
