Vintage Wood Box w/ 48 Glass Vials – Watchmaker or Perfume Kit

This intriguing vintage wooden box contains a set of over 48 tiny glass vials, each sealed with cork and individually numbered with matching paper labels. The vials sit snugly in a slotted insert within the case. Its original purpose is uncertain — it may have been used as either a watchmaker’s parts organizer or a fragrance, apothecary, or homeopathic sample set — but its craftsmanship and preserved state make it a true collector's item. 🕰️ As a watchmaker’s kit: The vials may have stored micro screws, gears, springs, oils, or other horological components, organized for use in fine watch repair or restoration work. 🌿 As a perfume/apothecary set: Alternatively, it resembles essential oil sample boxes or apothecary training kits, often used to store fragrance ingredients or homeopathic remedies. Era: Estimated mid-20th century Includes: Over 50 small corked glass vials, most numbered 147 Box: Hinged wood case with clasp and brass insert Approx. Dimensions: 2" x 6.25" x 6.25" Markings: Vials bear a shield-style logo and the letters “LIC” (Larsen Importing Co.)
