24" Antique 4 Section Apothecary Glass Show Globe Jar - No stopper

Description

24" Antique 4 Section Apothecary Glass Show Globe Jar
Excellent condition.  4 piece antique apothecary show globe measuring 24" in height.  Glass base with 2 detachable globes (missing the hollow blown glass stopper).  No chips, cracks, or crazing.  There is a light turquoise color on the areas of the glass that were ground.  We believe it is residue from whatever chemical they used in the etching process.  Please see photos for more details
See photo #5 for what appears to be a indent in the glass. Unsure of what caused it.
A
show globe
is a glass vessel of various shapes and sizes containing a colorful liquid. It has been a symbol of Pharmacy from the 17th century England to the early 20th century in the United States. It marked the drugstore or apothecary in much the same way as the Barber's pole marked tonsorial establishments in some countries. People who were illiterate needed such symbols to locate these medical practitioners.
Show globes were displayed almost exclusively in English-speaking countries, contrasting with the wider use of the mortar and pestle as a pharmaceutical symbol.
