A Collection of Antique Jars [PhotoChain Challenge - 30th Edition]

Good Night, Hive Bees!

This is my entry for the PhotoChain Challenge: 30th Edition, hosted by @davidesimoncini.

The keyword for this edition is Glass, picked by the previous winners @adinapoli and @melinda010100. Yep, they both picked the same word. 😁

For this week's challenge I chose a photo taken at an antique shop in the little town of Banská Štiavnica, in Slovakia. There were all kinds of different stuff available... and things made of glass and porcelain were everywhere to be found.

I particularly enjoyed this collection of old jars of medicinal and chemical products since they all had different sizes and shapes.

Everything on this shop was for sale... even though most of this stuff would probably be hanging on the shelves for a lifetime or two. Not only they are products with very little demand... but they are being sold in a little town which it's not a big touristic center.

This is a shop worth visiting, though. Besides all the cool stuff you'll find on display, the owner is a funny and friendly young guy who even offers you a cup of coffee, while you're waiting for him to go fetch a machine so you can pay with a Visa card. 😄

Cool man welcome to the VIP Lounge. You're now gonna get one upvote per day from @VIPService as well as the sidekick accounts.

Very nice! Thanks a lot! 😎

Looks like specially made for pharmaceutical industry a century ago. Or they are still using these. It gives you an old feeling.

Yeah, they appear to have a couple of centuries or so... 😊

The glasses don't miss there. Welcome another time dear @trincowski :)

Thanks a lot! It's not always possible to enter, but it's always a fun contest! 😄

Interesting, I saw this type of self /display before. Those glass jars look like chemicals jars....

Yeah, some had labels with chemicals, others appeared to be medicine. Thanks for the visit!

I love this!!! And I want it!!! Oh my and it's even buyable o.o Idk how I transport it all over borders xD It's so cool!!

It would be a crime to try travelling with these. They might force you to leave them behind... or worse, break them in the trip. 🤔

Thanks for you visit!

Ahh Noooo D:

good choice. all together looks really sweet. I love it. congratulations !.

Thanks a lot for the visit and comment.

An interesting collection of glass bottles! I love browsing through antique shops. Good one for GLASS.

For sure! I had plenty of photos with glass looking buildings but this looks a better fit for the contest! 😄

I love antiques. Especially glass Jars. Found your post through @qurator. Keep bringing quality content. Thank you.

Thank you very much!

Amazing! You have amazing antiques!The big book in the pictures, it caught my attention. Do you know what it is? What's the status of its pages? Please tell me!

Hi there! This is not my shop, I was a visitor.

I don't think that was a book, at all. But a box disguised as a book. Cool hiding place, eh? Put your Crypto Keys there and no one will bother to check! 🤣

Thanks for stopping by.
