Cobalt blue glass bottles like this one were commonly used for medicine and various household products in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The deep blue color was achieved by adding cobalt oxide to the glass mixture, which not only created a visually appealing hue but also helped to protect the contents from light exposure. This was particularly important for light-sensitive medications and chemicals.
