📝 Item Description:
Antique Lviv Apothecary Glass Bottle with Original Paper Label & Cork Stopper – 150ml
Up for sale is a genuine piece of Western Ukrainian medical history: an authentic antique/vintage apothecary
bottle originating from Lviv, Ukraine.
This beautiful light aqua/greenish glass bottle dates back to the mid-20th century (late 1940s to 1950s Soviet era), while the glass blank itself showcases traditional early production techniques with visible air bubbles and a crude mold seam, suggesting the bottle may be even older (pre-war era) and was later reused by the local pharmaceutical department.
🔍 Key Features & Details:
Local Provenance: The original paper label clearly reads in Ukrainian: "Львівська Облфілія АПТУ"
(Lviv Regional Branch of the Pharmacy Administration) at the top, and "Окислена вода" (Oxidized water / Hydrogen peroxide)
in the center. It also includes old blanks for the pharmacy address and phone numbers.
Makers Marks: The bottom of the bottle features an embossed vintage volume stamp: "150" (denoting 150 ml capacity).
Authentic Condition: The bottle comes with its original, aged wood/cork stopper. The glass has been gently surface-cleaned, preserving its historical patina, wonderful light-catching turquoise color, and charming manufacturing imperfections
(trapped air bubbles).
