    Description

    This is an antique bottle of sandalwood essential oil.  It was made by McKesson and Robbins, New York.  This is a one ounce bottle size and measures 3.5 inches tall and diameter is 1.5 inches.  It still has the original oil in side about 3/4 full, so guessing this is probably about 18-20 ML.    There isn't a date but guessing this is probably circa 1910s - 1920s, this oil is pure and over 100 years old, not like the newer versions.  It is rich and thick and was more concentrated than the ones made in mid-century.  The older more concentrated oils sell for 0 - 0 per milliliter.  The bottom of the bottom is D & O, for Dodge Olcott Company, who also made fragrance and essential oils.  Perhaps D&O sold to McKesson...?.  A small amount will go a long way if you're making perfumes, soaps or other fragrance products.  I can see the oil is nice and clean inside, part of the cork is missing and I can smell a pleasant woodsy aroma.  This was purchased from the estate of a pharmacy and apothecary collector.  It's hard to find this old stock oil and a little will go a long way.  Make us an offer!  We'll be sure to package it securely to keep it safe during shipping and send it insured, only sold in the continental U.S.  Enjoy!
