Neals Yard also do bottles and jars, and I think that they sell them wholesale - but don't quote me.

Does anyone know where I can get some glass "apothecary jars" from?  I am looking for a couple of different sizes.

Yes, and no!  They are the right sort of shape, but too big.

I want to put bath salts in them, but also bath oils.  I think that the smallest of these jars was half a kilo, which is a bit big for both.  The bath salts would probably go into 250g jars.  I have found plain jars, but just wanted something a little nicer.

The first url (Colorlites) has 250ml at the top of the list.

These could be an alternative for salts

http://www.colouredbottles.co.uk/store/catalog/Jars-Food-Small-Order-Menu-p-1-c-407.html

Scroll down to Orcio jar.

These jars wouldn't hold oil safely though, even though the lids are airtight - you really need something with a screwtop and seal.
