Description

This marble, Opium, apothecary jar was handmade by artisans in Agra, India, a few blocks from the Taj Mahal.  The renowned white marble is from the same quarries used for the Taj construction, and has inlaid stones with intricate floral designs copied from the interior walls of the Taj.  This collector's item is one of four commissioned by Mallinckrodt.

This is a Live Event Item.
