COLECIA STICL

Colecia de sticle a Muzeului Agriculturii conine un numr de 400 de piese, fiind

reprezentat printr-un numr impresionant de recipiente de sifon (120 piese), msuri pentru
alcool, sticlrie pentru buturi alcoolice (sticle pentru votc, coniac, lichior, vin, bere, recipiente
pentru vin, halbe de bere), sticlrie utilitar (borcane, pahare, solnie etc), sticlrie de laborator,
sticlrie decorativ (bibelouri) etc.
Sifoanele din colecia muzeului reprezint o parte important a acestei colecii, unele
dintre ele, unicate. Importana acestor obiecte de interes muzeal este dat de prezena numelui,
firmei i respectiv a adresei proprietarului fabricii de ape gazoase, valorificndu-le astfel
identitatea. Fabrici, de sorginte romneasc, de sticle de sifoane, identificate pe recipientele
coleciei muzeului sunt: Turda, Azuga, Tg. Mure, Media, Bucureti, Sibiu. Sunt trecute pe
recipientele de sticl numele, prenumele, adresa, numrul de telefon ale proprietarilor de sifoane,
inclusiv denumirea fabricilor de ape gazoase. Un alt mod de identificare a proprietarilor
sifoanelor este dat de inscripiile gravate pe capul sifonului (cum ar fi Fleischer, fabric din
Braov). ntlnim chiar i numele fabricii care a turnat recipientul (Fraii Singer, I.O.Il., LAZAR
ODON, Gloria sau numele uniunei fabricilor de ape gazoase precum: Sanitas, Victoria,
IPRODCOOP Sibiu, ASTRA, CITRON etc).
Recipientele pentru vin din colecie sunt variate ca form i ca utilizare. Sticlele de vin
au majoritatea o form standard, n general cilindric, cu gt lung sau scurt i inel de consolidare
a gtului, n funcie de particularitile regiunilor productoare de vinuri i capacitatea de 700
-750 ml, astfel nct s poat fi transportate cu uurin, dar ntlnim i alte forme (globulare,
tronconice). Recipientele pentru buturi alcoolice distilate (uic, rachiu, coniac, bitter etc) sunt
reprezentate prin sticle i oiuri (pahare n form de sticlu, cu gtul lung i ngust din care se
bea uic sau rachiu). Recipientele pentru bere sunt reprezentate prin sticle de bere cu capaciti
de 500, 650 i 1000 ml, cu nscrisuri filate cu numele mrcii i a fabricii productoare, precum i
halbe de bere de diferite capaciti.
Toate aceste piese constituie o colecie important a muzeului i acest fapt ne arat c
piesele din sticl nu trebuie tratate cu efemeritate n momentul de fa, deoarece se risc
pierderea a o mare parte dintre ele.

THE GLASS COLLECTION

The Agricultural Museum collection of glass bottles contains a total of 400 pieces, being
represented by an impressive number of soda siphon containers (120 pieces), measures for
alcohol, alcoholic beverage glassware (bottles for vodka, cognac, liquor, wine, beer, containers
for wine, beer mugs), utilitarian glass (jars, cups, salt cellars, etc.), laboratory glassware,
decorative glassware (figurines, frills) etc
Siphons belonging to the museum's collection represent an important part of this
collection, some of which are unique. The importance of these objects from the museological
point of view is represented by the presence of the name, the company and the address of the
factory owners of the soda waters, thus capitalizing their identity. Siphon bottles factories, of
Romanian origin, identified on the containers from this museum collection are from Turda,
Azuga, Trgu Mure, Media, Bucureti, and Sibiu. On the glass containers we can see the
mentioning of the siphon owners first name, their last name, address and phone number,
including the name of the soda waters factories. Another way of identifying the owners of the
siphon containers is given by the inscriptions engraved on the head of the bottle (such as
Fleischer the name of a factory in Braov). We can even find the name of the factory that has
moulded the container (Singer Brothers, I.O.Il., LAZAR ODON, Gloria or the name of the
union of soda waters factories such as: Sanitas,

Victoria, IPRODCOOP Sibiu, ASTRA,

CITRON etc).
The wine containers from this collection are varied in shape and use. Most wine bottles
have a standard shape, generally cylindrical, with a long or short neck and a neck strengthening
ring, depending on the particular wine-producing regions and the capacity of 700 - 750 ml that
they may have, so that they could be easily transported. In this collection we can also find other
glassware shapes (globular, truncated cone). Containers for distilled alcoholic beverages
(uica- plum brandy, rachiu- brandy, cognac, bitter, etc.) are represented by bottles and oiuri
(bottle-shaped glasses with long narrow necks). Beer glass containers are represented by beer
bottles with capacities of 500, 650 and 1000 ml, with spinned inscriptions with the name of the
brand and the manufacturing factories, and pints of beer of different capacities.
All these glass pieces represent a significant museum collection, glassware objects being
always admired and cherished, gaining the privilege of uniqueness over time.
