Set of three glass vials with original cork stoppers, each retaining a handwritten label detailing preparations related to animal anatomy ("dorsal marrow", "nerves vicinity / base of external ear", "optic nerve"). The dilution indications (1/100, 1/10 000) strengthen the hypothesis of laboratory use, probably in the context of histological study or scientific research from the early 20th century. The homogeneity of the writings and contents testifies to a coherent set from the same working environment, offering a rare glimpse into the experimental and pedagogical practices of the era.
