Very Nice \"PRICES / PATENT CANDLE / COMPANY\" 1860s & Cobalt Blue!
We offer a beautiful Victorian medicine bottle. Embossing reads: “PRICES / PATENT / CANDLE / COMPANY” across the face. It was hand blown into a wedge shape mold in cobalt blue colored glass, circa 1860s. It has a crude applied top and a concave base with a re-fired pontil. Size is 7-3/4” tall x 3” wide. Original, as found, non polished condition, it’s in really nice shape. I note NO chips, cracks, scratches, wear, stain or repairs. I believe this is the earliest of the Patent Candle bottles and rare in this lighter shade of cobalt.

The Price\'s Patent Candle Co. was started by Edward Price & Co. in 1830. The company had production facilities in London, Liverpool and Manchester England. The company\'s main business was candle making. Then it branched out and started importing large amounts of oil.
Their major product were benzene which was used for cleaning, kerosene for lamp oil, paraffin for candles and soaps along with heavy oils used for lubrication. The by-product of saponification included glycerin. George Wilson manufactured and promoted this by product. By 1870 it was being used as a treatment for burns and skin disease, as a food preservation, an additive for paints, photographic emulsion, a suspension for vaccines and as a base for soaps.
