Visual Description

This antique miniature bottle features a slender glass bottle, sealed with a metallic-looking blue cap. On the visible side, the original label is well-preserved and prominently displays "PACIFIC" in large yellow letters on a blue background, followed by the name "Ricard" in smaller characters. The label also includes an illustration of stylized sailboats against a sky and sea background, typical of French aniseed beverage advertising graphics from the late 20th century.

Below the main logo, "BOISSON AUX EXTRAITS D’ANIS" (Anise Extract Beverage) and "BOISSON SANS SUCRE" (Sugar-Free Beverage) can be read in yellow on a blue background. The text "2 cl" indicates the capacity of the miniature bottle, information consistent with spirit miniature standards. The bottle's surface reveals a cloudy, pale yellow liquid, characteristic of non-alcoholic aniseed aperitifs.

The label shows slight wear on the edges, indicating the object's age without affecting the legibility of the inscriptions or graphics. No chips or cracks are visible on the photographed part of the glass. The top cap has a matte appearance with some superficial marks, typical of prolonged storage.

The overall shape of the bottle, the typography, and the graphic style visually place this object in the 1980s-1990s, a period when Ricard produced several variations of non-alcoholic aniseed beverages under the Pacific brand. The design clearly evokes the world of promotional products and vintage bar items.
