This collection features several early 20th-century amber glass bottles, including a notable S&S Old Fashioned Ginger Beer bottle and a Gillespie’s Javel bottle. Historically, amber glass was favored during the late 19th and early 1900s for its ability to filter ultraviolet light, protecting sensitive contents like fermented ginger beer and chemical solutions from spoilage. The "S&S" bottle likely dates to the 1920s or 30s, an era when glass began to replace traditional stoneware for carbonated beverages due to lower production costs and improved hygiene standards. The "Javel" bottle would have held a bleaching or cleaning solution (Eau de Javel), reflecting the industrial transition toward branded, mass-produced chemical containers. Most items in this collection is in good vintage condition, showing characteristic age-related "patina" such as minor surface abrasions, internal hazing (cloudiness), and small flea bites on the rims, but they retain their structural integrity and embossed clarity. Dimensions: Range from 6cm - 20cm (h)
