SKU: 04226
Antique Evans cobalt blue glass apothecary bottle, most likely dating back to the 1920s or 1930s. The embossed cap indicates it was produced by Evans Sons Lescher & Webb Ltd, a prominent pharmaceutical and chemical manufacturing company based out of Liverpool and London. The deep cobalt blue color (often referred to historically as Bristol blue) was specifically used by Victorian and early 20th-century chemists. This distinct vibrant shade acted as a visual warning system to help pharmacists and consumers differentiate dangerous chemicals or poisons from standard clear medicine or food bottles in low-light environments.
