This listing is for this E.E. Vaughan West End Pharmacy – Rhyl, printed base w/lid. Rhyl is a seaside town in Denbighshire, North Wales, which became a popular resort in the late 19th century. This is a classic Victorian era apothecary jar used for dispensing creams, salves, or ointments. The base is in good condition with two minor chips on the bottom, and attractive crazing throughout. The graphics are still very strong and clean. It has a plain lid in good condition, with two sizable chips on the inside rim that is not visible when it sits in the base.

This is an authentic antique English advertising pot sourced during my recent buying trip to England. I have been sourcing these wonderful pots for over 12 years from friends who are actually digging them up in ancient rubbish sites all over England. I purchased my first antique Advertising pot when my husband and I had the wonderful opportunity to live in England in the 1980’s. Our daughter was born there and we enjoyed living in England so much we often went back to visit after returning to the US.

Interestingly, this same daughter’s husbands job moved them to London were we have enjoyed visiting our grandchildren and antiquing.

On our many visits we have became friends with many of the “diggers” excavating the ancient dumpsites all over the UK and now source thousands of pots from them every year. I still love the charm they add to every room they are placed in.

Please study all images as they are the best representation of the actual item you will receive. These are scarce and getting harder and harder to source.

Returns are not accepted on these rare authentic pieces but please contact if you have any questions.
