A striking early 20th century medicine bottle, naturally turned a rich amethyst purple through prolonged sun exposure.
Originally clear, the manganese content in the glass has transformed over time, creating a deep violet tone with a softly clouded interior. The result is a beautifully atmospheric piece, with a ghosted, almost archaeological quality that comes alive in natural light.
Classic cylindrical form with tooled lip and solid base. A strong display size and an excellent standalone decorative object.
Condition:
Good antique condition. Internal haze and surface wear consistent with age and burial. No major chips or cracks noted.
Dimensions:
Height: approx. 24 cm
