Two sets of three French found small antique ironstone advertising pots, sold in pharmacies for dispensing ointments. With wonderful graphics, these pots are rare and collectible.
 
The first set comprises an advertising pot from a Pharmacie from Blois in the Loire Valley, Balzer & Roger, the Pharmacie Centrale, with its original paper label showing it was dispensed on 2nd January 1901. 
The wider pot has its original product label and a chip to the rim, the smaller is a blank ironstone pharmacy jar.
 
The second set comprises a pommade jar with a slightly blue tint from Warin in Paris dated 8th October 1903 on the hand written dispensary label. The middle size jar is in a language I cannot read, but very decorative and the tiny pot has a beautifully decorative script and is dated on thhe base 1st August 1931.
 
The jars measure from just over 2" to 1.5"
