Large Antique Cut Glass Apothecary Urn or Chemist Display Jar An Impressively Large and Elegant early 20th Century French Cut Glass Apothecary Urn with original Lid. Intended for Window Displays and shop dressing, though some were used for more practical uses. The Jar has an ovoid or Egg shaped body, balanced on a stepped hexagon pedestal base, the lid is sleek and fluid in design finished with a tall tapering finial. The main glass body is decorated with tapering thin cut lines, broken up twice with a leaf garland design. The Urn is in excellent condition for its age, material, and use. The glass is crack and chip free and clear, though there are some small imperfections and tiny air bubbles.

It is impossible to be an expert in all realms of selling, and I am representing the items to the best of my knowledge and ability as I always strive to do my research. I encourage you to look closely at all the images and to ask questions you may have to help clarify identification or condition, as I may inadvertently omit information that you as a buyer feel important. Collection Only I am more than happy to wrap carefully for the buyer to collect from my KT3 address, as it is too large and delicate to post. Ad ID: Delivery Service Consumer Credit
