Ung. Petoral.

18th century

This blue and white drug container is marked at the waist “Ung Petoral.” A white cartouche on the lower portion of the jar also reads “Ung. Pectoral.” Unguent Pectoral is an ointment used for ailments of the chest and lungs. Albarelli jars with wide mouths were used to store dry, bulky materials such as leaves and bark.
