Just glass

Most of my glass is cut crystal and clear but I do have a few pieces of coloured. The green brandy-type glass was my late aunt's and the cranberry (faux) chemist bottle was issued by the NPA about 30 years ago. Quite pretty but not authentic - the genuine ones are either clear, brown, green or blue. When I started my apprenticeship in 1957 I spent the first 3 months dusting shelf after shelf of them, learning the names of the contents - no such things as batch numbers and best before dates then! I still have two old ones - one has Peppermint Essence in and the other Oil of Lavender - both many years old but still retain their smell.
