    does anyone know where I could get old school pharmacy equipment..particularly large jars, brown jars, big test tubes etc? doesnt have to be old.

    have tried aliexpress and a little ebay but nothing really standing out.

    ideally big enough to put LED lights into as a table top decoration.

    Thanks for any help!

    Aside from e-bay, I'd suggest you searched in charity shops - you can ask them to keep them aside for you, if they were to get them in.

    Otherwise, if you're stuck and you are in a hurry, I'd say get some plain mason jars and paint them with brown glass paint - you may need more than one
    coat.

    You could also make your own using empty bottles (there are tutorials online on how to cut them), but then you'd need to use large corks as stoppers, they wouldn't be screw-tops. You could find some in bottle banks (ask first if you can take them), or you could ask restaurants.
