Description: Based in Budapest, Hungary, the Andreas Saxlehner Mineral Spring Water Company produced insanely popular mineral water in what some believed to be a bitters bottle. The brand was named after Hunyadi Janos (John Hunyadi) (1407-1456), a 15th-century Hungarian military hero.It was sold as an “aperient,” aka laxative, claiming medicinal qualities, including “organic diseases resulting from a fatty degeneration,” for the organs of “respiration and circulation,” for “the evil consequences of indiscretion in diet,” and the keystone – helpful in relieving hemorrhoids.I think you will love this decorative, 9.25-inch tall, olive green bottle, in mint condition, free of any cracks or chips, and nicely whittled. It is very representative of the many “Bitterquelle” (bitter spring) bottles made from 1865-1900 and is popular among collectors as well as designers for its unusual olive green, whittled appearance. As always with vintagepapa, carefully wrapped and promptly mailed USPS. Thank you for looking!
