Antique Spanish faience apothecary jars in a matched blue and white pharmacy albarello pair, hand painted in cobalt blue over a white tin glazed ground with bold botanical labels VALLERIANA and EUCALIPTO. One jar features a Spanish galleon ship with architectural landscape detailing; the companion jar presents a standing figure framed by ornamental border bands. Estimated circa late 18th to early 19th century (attribution based on form and decoration).

Spanish pharmacy ware of this type is associated with historic botamen storage used by apothecaries, where labeled ceramic jars organized ingredients and remedies. The crisp blue-on-white palette, readable cartouches, and traditional albarello silhouette anchor this pair firmly within the collectible language of Iberian tin-glazed ceramics.

The pair styles naturally into Mediterranean decor and coastal decor settings (especially where blue and white ceramics echo maritime themes), and also reads well in cottage decor and rustic shelving compositions. Practical secondary use includes utensil storage or decorative dried botanicals.
