{"title":"Collection of antique pigments.","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach remarkable glass bottle holds a historical pigment—whether mineral or synthetic. The collection features ultramarine blues of striking intensity, chrome yellows, and verdigris, alongside carmine reds and mauves, whites, and iridescent hues. These pigments are housed in antique glass vessels of varying shapes and sizes: stout, square apothecary jars with glass stoppers sit alongside slender laboratory vials corked and tied at the neck with period twine. Each bottle bears a label hand-cut from 19th-century French documents—tax receipts, municipal registers, and handwritten letters complete with signatures, seals, and numerical charts. These elements transform each piece into a unique object that sits at the intersection of an artist’s studio, a cabinet of curiosities, and a paper archive. Sold individually, these bottles are all unique; they offer the discerning collector far more than a mere decorative object of rare visual beauty—they provide a tangible fragment of French material history, where color and document are inseparable, as if time itself had been bottled.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/mr-cup.myshopify.com\/collections\/collection-of-antique-pigments.oembed","provider":"MR CUP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
