This historic auction lot features a collection of 19th and early 20th-century Victorian ceramic dug apothecary items, including a prominent white milk glass chemist bottle, multiple stoneware and ironstone ointment pots, tooth powder jars, and individual lids. A notable piece in the collection is an ironstone jar manufactured by S. Maw, Son & Sons (previously S. Maw, Son & Thompson, dating this specific piece between 1870 and 1901), a premier London surgical instrument and pharmaceutical supplier. Additionally, the collection features a rare transfer-printed "Poor Man's Friend" ointment pot, prepared by Beach & Barnicott, a famous English remedy from the 1800s. The items are in authentic "as-dug" condition, showing a rustic antique character with varying degrees of crazing, minor hairline cracks, staining, and small chips consistent with being buried and excavated, making them highly collectible display pieces for history enthusiasts.
