Box from a collection from the 1930's by a pharmacist in Central France and kept in the attic of the pharmacy.

Contents: seeds, leaves, bark, roots, tubers, petals, flowers, gum, resin, mushrooms, lichen, moss etc...
Various sizes between 3.5cm (small size S), 4.5cm (medium size M) ,6.5cm (large size L) - Not all boxes are exactly this size.
