An interesting antique, probably early twentieth century, large apothecary or laboratory measuring glass. The measure is marked out ion one side o the scale in 0.5 and 1 pint, and on the other from 1 to 20. The reverse has a scale without numbers. It stands 7.3 inches (18.6 cm) high and has a pouring lip. The markings are engraved or etched into the glass. Condition is very good with no chips or cracks but there are some small bubbles in the glass all from the manufacturing process and indicating hand made glass. This would make a great addition to a collection of apothecary items or a scientific display on a desk etc. Quite heavy, as large, and will need careful packing - so please note the postage cost. SALES INFORMATION We often photograph our items in an appropriate setting to give more of an idea of how the items might look when displayed. The actual item for sale will be the main item in the photograph and, unless otherwise stated, the sale is for the item described only (i.e. not inclusive of any background items used in the pictures) PAYMENT : Paypal for overseas bidders please. UK bidders also may use a cheque drawn on a UK bank or send a postal order. Please send payment within ten days of auction end, or if you are likely to be away etc. please contact me to let me know. POSTAGE : Our postage charges are estimated to the best of our ability before the item is packed for shipping based on actual Royal Mail price charts. Therefore, if the actual shipping charge should prove to be less, we will refund the difference in postage back to you via Paypal. We always use Signed For or Insured services. Although these do cost a little more, they offer better service and protection for items, so are worth the extra cost in case of any problems. I will combine postage for multiple items, provided they can be safely packed together. NON UK BIDDERS : In theory we are happy to ship most items overseas, but those which are large and/or heavy can be very expensive via UK shipping channels. If you wish to bid from overseas and do not see a postage price for your destination in the listing, please contact us and we will send a shipping estimate. Items are priced for postage by Volumetric Weight : height x width x length. Please also note that your local customs office may levy an import duty, which you will need to pay.

In the (fortunately) rare event that an item arrives damaged : With claims for damaged items, the carrier will want to see evidence of damage, so please keep all packaging and the damaged item itself. Please take photographs of these if at all possible, as these will aid a claim. However, we are a small business and returns do cost us money.
