Exceptional collection of nine antique apothecary bottles, individually sourced and thoughtfully assembled into a striking decorative composition. The bottles vary in height, silhouette and proportion, creating a beautifully balanced arrangement of green glass with an unmistakable historical presence. The collection includes small pharmacy bottles, taller storage bottles, narrow-necked vessels and rounded forms, each reflecting the practical diversity of the traditional chemist’s shop. Their variations in size suggest that they were originally used for different preparations, quantities and dispensing purposes. Some may have held medicinal mixtures, tinctures, botanical extracts, aromatic preparations or other pharmaceutical compounds commonly prepared and sold by apothecaries. The rich green coloration is one of the most characteristic features of the group. During the 19th century, green and blue-green glass was widely used for pharmacy bottles, particularly in Europe and Britain. The color was associated with traditional apothecary glassware and, in some cases, helped protect light-sensitive contents. Green bottles were also used for substances that required visual distinction within the pharmacy, although color alone does not identify a particular medicine or poison. Ribbing, unusual shapes, special stoppers and printed or embossed warnings were often used for that purpose. These bottles belong to the world of the Victorian pharmacy, when an apothecary was simultaneously a medical practitioner, chemist, compounder and retailer. Medicines were prepared in small quantities, measured by hand and dispensed in containers selected according to the substance and the required dosage. Before standardized industrial packaging became widespread, the bottle itself was an essential part of the medical experience. Their forms also reveal the evolution of glassmaking. Many antique pharmaceutical...

Antique Papua New Guinea Hand-Carved Tribal Mask, Sepik River Region, Early 20th Century An evocative and finely crafted tribal mask from Papua New Guinea, likely originating from the Sepik River region, renowned for its powerful ceremonial art and expressive visual traditions. This striking mask is constructed from handwoven vegetal fibers, rather than carved wood, reflecting a distinct regional approach within Papua New Guinea ceremonial arts. The bold facial composition features exaggerated eyes, pronounced contours, and graphic detailing—hallmarks of Sepik-influenced ritual objects. The surface displays a rich, naturally aged patina with visible wear and tonal variation consistent with age, ritual handling, and long-term environmental exposure. Hand-applied pigments in multiple colors further enhance its visual impact and ceremonial character. Masks of this type were traditionally used in spiritual and ceremonial contexts, often associated with ancestral reverence, initiation rites, or protective symbolism within village life. Today, such works are highly sought after by collectors of tribal and ethnographic art, as well as interior designers seeking objects with strong cultural narrative and sculptural presence. A compelling sculptural object whether displayed on a wall or as a standalone accent, this mask brings depth, history, and a sense of the primal to any refined interior or curated collection. Condition: Good antique condition with age-appropriate wear, surface patina, and minor irregularities consistent with traditional hand-weaving, hand-painting, and use. No restorations observed. Authentic Early 20th-century Papua New Guinea masks...

Exceptional collection of antique English ink bottles in a beautiful range of pale blue, aqua and blue-green glass. Individually sourced and thoughtfully assembled as a unified group, the collection brings together bottles of different shapes, proportions and sizes, creating a highly distinctive composition of historic writing vessels. The color is traditionally known as aqua glass, one of the most characteristic colors associated with 19th-century English bottle production. It is sometimes described as pale blue-green, sea-glass green or blue aqua. The color was produced naturally by the minerals present in the sand and other raw materials used in glassmaking, rather than being applied as a surface decoration. Slight differences in tone, transparency and density are part of the beauty of antique aqua glass...

Beautiful pair of vintage James Keiller & Son Ltd. Dundee Seville Orange Marmalade jars, produced in Scotland and packed for Nestlé Canada Ltd., Toronto. James Keiller & Son was one of Scotland’s most important marmalade manufacturers. The company was established in Dundee in the late 18th century and became internationally recognized for its distinctive Dundee-style marmalade, traditionally made with bitter Seville oranges and finely cut strips of orange peel. The brand grew from a local Scottish enterprise into an internationally distributed food company whose products were exported throughout the British Empire and beyond. These jars represent a later chapter in that history. Made for the Canadian market, they feature the original bilingual inscriptions “Product of Scotland” and “Produit de l’Écosse,” together with the designation “Seville Orange Marmalade.” The reference to Nestlé Canada Ltd., Toronto documents the commercial relationship between the historic Scottish brand and its Canadian distributor. The bilingual labeling is an especially interesting detail, reflecting both the Canadian market and the period’s packaging requirements. The jars are made of softly colored white milk glass, with black printed lettering and an elegant botanical border. Their restrained design is characteristic of vintage food packaging: practical, recognizable and carefully branded, yet visually appealing enough to become collectible in its own right. The familiar Dundee name, the Scottish origin and the reference to Seville oranges immediately communicate the identity and quality of the product. This particular format is generally associated with the mid- to late 20th century, most likely circa the 1970s. Although much later than the original Victorian Keiller stoneware crocks, these milk-glass examples preserve the visual language and commercial identity of the historic brand while reflecting a more modern era of international food distribution. As a pair, they have a particularly strong decorative presence. Their simple cylindrical silhouettes, warm ivory glass, crisp black typography and botanical framing create a refined yet nostalgic composition. They would be beautiful displayed together on open kitchen shelving, in a pantry, on a breakfast table, in a country-house interior or incorporated into a collection of antique and vintage advertising objects. These jars are more than attractive kitchen accessories: they are tangible records of Scottish food history, international commerce and the evolution of branded packaging. They evoke the rituals of breakfast, the tradition of marmalade-making and the enduring appeal of a name that has represented Dundee marmalade...
