GLYSOPHATE FOR THE HAIR

London England    c. 1885

This large Victorian 3 3/4” wide x 2 " tall covered ceramic earthenware container was made during Victorian times and contained Glysophate Salts which was a hair salve to kill head lice and other scalp ridden parasites.  Who knows what happened when it absorbed into your scull.

The pieces are in good condition. A hairline to the side of the base and a small chip to the interior flange.  Rare to find piece.
