19th Century French Apothecary Jar Lamps-A Pair

About the Item

Based on their design and the historical context of similar apothecary jars, these French apothecary jars likely date from the late 19th century to the early 20th century. During this period, ornate porcelain jars were commonly used in pharmacies to store various medicinal substances. The decorative style and labels are consistent with the aesthetic and functional qualities of that era. These antique apothecary jars have been custom mounted and electrified to blend historical beauty with modern functionality, making them a perfect addition to any eclectic or classic interior. Each lamp is constructed from a beautifully preserved porcelain apothecary jar, adorned with ornate floral and gilded designs. The labels, "HARINA MOSTAZA" (mustard flour) and "ALCANF: de JAPON," (camphor of Japan) add an authentic touch of vintage pharmacy charm. The jars are elegantly mounted on brass bases and topped with brass hardware, making them not only a source of light but also a conversation piece. These lamps are ideal for bedside tables, living room end tables, or any space needing a unique historical accent. Their timeless design and exquisite craftsmanship ensure they will be cherished additions to your home decor.
