Miron Violet Glass Apothecary Jar - 250mL

The appreciation people have for the special protective qualities of violet glass can be traced back to the heyday of ancient Egyptian civilisation. Valuable essences and healing natural products were kept in alabaster, gold and violet glass containers.

Even with the alchemists during the middle ages there are signs that people of that time were aware of the special quality the shimmering violet glass had. The advancing industrialisation and the emergence of new packaging materials meant that violet glass faded into obscurity during the last hundred years.

Since the first industrially produced MIRON violet glass production in 1995, the composition, manufacturing- and verification methods have significantly changed. More and more producers of high quality natural products discover that the advantages of MIRON violet glass containers help their produce to gain an even better market position.

The Secret of Miron Violetglass
According to the Institute Fraunhofer in Munich (Germany) the radiation in the photosensitive area (app 450nm to 720nm) does not penetrate the VIOLET glass. Amber glass on the other hand lets light through here and in all of the visible areas of the light spectrum. Experts talk about a potential "quality leak".
