About this work
This square-shaped bottle has an applied neck and a flared collar. The clear glass is decorated with a baked enamel cartouche. A white shield on a blue background is framed by a yellow C scroll design and capped by a crown. Urdang attributes this bottle to the Court Pharmacy of Pillnitz, which today is a city quarter in eastern Dresden, Germany. It is marked <i>ESS LiGNOR</i> in red initial letters.
