The 30 ml amber apothecary bottle is an ideal intermediate size between small 10 ml sample bottles and larger 50–100 ml formats. The vintage apothecary form gives a timeless look — this pack of 88 is designed for small-business makers and crafters who work with their own cap system, or who wish to choose the cap type flexibly.
What this pack of 88 contains
88 amber glass bottles with a nominal 30 ml fill capacity, supplied without caps. Each bottle is approximately 85 mm tall, 35 mm in diameter, and weighs around 59 g empty. The pack's total weight is approximately 5.19 kg. The neck has a standard GL18 finish, making it compatible with the majority of aluminium caps, pipette droppers, childproof closures, and spray heads available on the market.
Amber glass and UV protection
Amber-coloured glass effectively filters the shorter wavelengths of visible light and the ultraviolet range — precisely those photocatalysts that trigger the oxidation of volatile compounds. The 30 ml format particularly suits preparations meant for relatively rapid use — massage oils, hydrosols, concentrated botanical tinctures. The glass is chemically inert.
Vintage apothecary form
The bottle's silhouette evokes the aesthetics of old pharmacy and apothecary glass: an understated, timeless look for self-labelled, natural-inspired products. The standard neck allows flexible closure choice — you decide what cap, pipette, or spray head you offer the finished product with.
Areas of use
- Bottling of your own massage oils and body oils

Cleaning and reuse
Before filling, wash each bottle with warm water and mild soap, then rinse with alcohol to neutralise residual aromatic substances, and allow to dry completely. Avoid the dishwasher, as high temperatures can damage labelling or cause minor scratching of the rim. Once empty, the amber glass can be reused or placed in municipal glass recycling.
