A very rare opportunity to buy a Price’s bottle in cobalt (not sapphire) with its original stopper. The original cork inner is no longer lining the top, so the stopper is now loose. Embossed on the base with ‘1227’.
This is a genuine bottle, they don’t come up for sale often.
Good condition. There is very minor surface wear consistent with age, but no chips or cracks.
Price’s imported and distilled oil and manufactured benzene and kerosene. By 1858 they held 114 patents for candle manufacturing. Price’s glycerine was used in multiple applications.
Height inc stopper: 19.5 cm (7 5/8 in)
Width at base: 7.7 cm (3 in)
Depth at base: 6 cm (2 3/8 in)
Weight: 458 g (1 lb)
Stock number: 3669
