Vintage Apothecary Jars with Toy Marbles

This lot consists of two vintage clear glass apothecary or apothecary-style display jars, each filled with a variety of glass toy marbles. The jars feature a cylindrical body with a flared rim and are topped with original ground-glass stoppers that vary in shape—one exhibiting a faceted, knob-like design and the other a flat, disc or button-like form. The center of each jar contains an applied rectangular label, aged to a deep tan or brown patina. One label clearly displays handwritten script mentioning '1967', suggesting a mid-20th-century provenance. The interior contents comprise a dense assortment of marbles in varying sizes, colors, and styles, including cat's eyes, solid colors, and swirled patterns in shades of blue, green, red, yellow, and white. The glass remains largely transparent with some minor surface dust and natural aging seen on the adhesive of the labels. The craftsmanship of the jars points to a utilitarian medical or pharmaceutical origin converted for decorative use. Overall condition appears good with historical wear consistent with age, particularly the discoloration and fraying of the paper labels which adds to the antique aesthetic.
