An excellent example of the medium sized stoneware pots produced for Virol bone marrow preparation treatment.

This antique jar is a lovely example of early twentieth Century advertising and packaging, with the branding applied via black transfer print under the glaze. The transfer is still clearly legible.

The transfer print reads:

“VIROL. A PREPARATION OF BONE MARROW. AN IDEAL FAT FOOD FOR CHILDREN & INVALIDS.”

The jar is in good used condition. There is a very small knock to the edge of the top rim and a couple of minor glazing faults on the sides where the stoneware has built up or has a small hole, but this is extremely common for these items.

Height, 10cm; Width, 6.5cm
