Old pharmacy jar / apothecary bottle silicas magnesicus

Real vintage pharmacy bottle in glass with a sheet metal cap formerly painted. It has a label discolored by time on which it is written "silicas magnesicus" Magnesium silicate is a mineral found in clay. It comes in the form of a fine powder of off-white, odorless and flaky appearance. It was once used to make a product uniform in color while giving it opacity, making it more presentable to the customer. This apothecary pot has kept the traces of his experience but has its place in a cabinet of curiosity, and will add a deliciously retro touch to your interior. H 22 X d 9 cm.
