Small retort wanted


Hello folks, I am looking to purchase a small (up to 500ml) glass retort, anyone got one for sale (US based).

I'm looking for one that is more classic (antique) looking in shape (many of the newer ones look like repurposed round bottom flasks) although it would be good if it had a functional 24/40 stopper.

Here's what I mean (top one):

I've looked on eBay and a few suppliers like CRS and Avogadro but nothing there.

Contact me here or direct at paulr1234@yahoo.com

I'm in Canada, but I might be able to spare one... I'm not sure what you mean by "antique" looking though. The one I have (think I still have, old photo from when I tried to sell it once) is a Pyrex brand one with a 14/ penny head stopper that I probably don't have anymore.

But is this similar to what you are seeking?

**edit: I just realized you are looking for a 24/ sized stopper. This retort was only 100-125 ml if memory serves me right.

Mailinmypocket, that is exactly what I am looking for :)

Do you have a spare would consider selling me? I don't really mind what the stopper size is.

Drop me a line at paulr1234@yahoo.com if you'd like to work out the details.

Thanks for the other contributions also :)
