The Apothecary Keeper's Vessel

Curator's Note

Emma has always been drawn to things that look as though they might have belonged somewhere else.

This particular discovery caught her attention because, at first glance, it appeared to be nothing more than an ordinary vessel. But on closer inspection, she found shelves of curious bottles, forgotten books, little skulls, plants, moons and mysterious objects winding their way around its dark surface.

Naturally, Emma had to investigate.

She wondered what might have been kept inside it once — dried herbs perhaps, a secret potion, or something that was never meant to be named.

Whatever its original purpose, Specimen No. A-0764 certainly looked as though it belonged in the Archive.

This wonderfully unusual black apothecary-style mug with lid features an enchanting illustrated design inspired by old potion rooms, curious collections and forgotten cabinets. The detailed artwork wraps around the vessel, making it a piece you'll want to keep on display even when it's not being used.

Perfect for a gothic kitchen, witch's cupboard, cosy reading corner or simply for anyone who enjoys surrounding themselves with curious things.
