Treen Dome Lidded Apothecary Case with Glass Measure menangerie were meant to be dancedI can never pass on old treen apothecary canisters like this, especially one with such a lovely rounded top, and with shot glass measure inside, marking teaspoons and tablespoons. This would have been used for medicine, but makes for a handy traveling shot glass now, should one wish, say, to make a proper cocktail on a picnic or just in the hotel room. Of course still good for administering cough syrup too, or for cooking! 3 1 2" t x 2 1 4" in
