19th Century Narcotic Apothecary Jar Morph. Muriat. 1.jpg

19th Century Morph. Muriat. Narcotic Apothecary Jar with Ground Glass Stopper Morphine Hydrochloride

Like the other 19th C. bottle I posted, the "Tinct. Cannab. ind.", the bottle is almost the same shape and age. The ground glass stopper fits tightly and appears to be the right stopper for this bottle. The bottle is a thick walled bottle with a polished pontil, please see the details of the bottle. 
The label is firm stuck on the bottom with slight and faint wear from age. 
Morph. abbreviation for Morphine. 
Muriat. is an abbreviation for muriaticum, which is in more common in pharmacy is Hydrochloride 

This and other bottles come from one collection. 
Size: 4 inches tall total height. The jar is 3 1/4 inches tall x 1 3/4 inches wide. 
Condition: Very fine with no visible chips or damage to the glass. The label is fine and has marks under the "plastic" coating. Please see the images for more details.
