EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the 1880s and discover the innovative solution for pure and aerated drinking water with this vintage advertisement for a Silicated Carbon Filter from the Battersea, London-based company. Dated 1888, this patent design showcases the company's groundbreaking filter, which was designed to improve the quality of domestic water supplies. The advertisement illustrates the filter's intricate workings: as water enters the filter, the air under the Aerator Cover is forced through the Silicated Carbon block in the direction of the arrows. This process filters the water, making it bright and clear while also aerating it, ensuring that the water is not only pure but also palatable. The Victorian era was a time when access to clean water was a luxury, and this filter offered a practical and effective solution for households seeking to improve the taste and quality of their drinking water. The filter's ascension to popularity is evident in the numerous items featured in the advertisement, suggesting that it was a must-have for any modern household. This advertisement is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the ingenuity and innovation of the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of water filtration technology and the importance of having access to clean and safe drinking water.
