Poison bottles were frequently marked with certain raised forms or distinctive patterns to help prevent accidents. This was especially helpful if you were handling bottles by candlelight. Cobalt blue, inky black, and dark green were popular hues for antique poison bottles, and they frequently included raised text or inlays spelling out \"POISON\" or \"DEATH\" among designs of raised latticework, deep grooves, geometric forms, and, most frequently, the skull and crossbones.
