The product is an antique ceramic apothecary jar with a lid, specifically labeled with the words "POISON PIL. MORPHINE". The jar features a classic aged ceramic white (cream) color and dates back to the pre-1930 era (late 19th to early 20th Century), making it a unique and historical piece for collectors interested in apothecary and pharmaceutical artifacts. With its traditional design and dangerous label, this item serves as a reminder of the past and the practices of science and medicine during that time period. Diameter 2 1/2" x Ht. 1 1/2 ". Paper label attached to the top of the lid reads F.M. Rimmington & Son, Ltd of Bradford & Manningham.
Condition is good. There is some crazing, rim wear, and a linear fine line crack and small stain area on the bottom, no inside cracks. Tiny chip on the rim lip. Bottom is impressed stamped.
A unique rare find.
