EDITORS COMMENTS
This image dates back to 1826 and depicts Advert, A Rowland and Son, a prominent shop located in the heart of Hatton Garden, London. The elegant storefront, adorned with ornate columns and intricate detailing, exudes an air of sophistication and class. The nameplate proudly displays the range of products sold within: Macassar Oil and other assorted items. Macassar Oil, a popular men's grooming product during the 1820s, was derived from the nut of the Macassar tree in the East Indies. It was used for hair care, providing a glossy sheen and helping to keep hair in place. The oil was also believed to have health benefits for the scalp. The shop, run by Advert and Son, offered a variety of other products as well. Toiletries, perfumes, and medicines were all available for purchase. The presence of these diverse offerings speaks to the comprehensive nature of the business and its ability to cater to a wide range of customer needs. The location of the shop in Hatton Garden, an area known for its trade and commerce, further underscores its significance. The Duke of York and Sussex can be seen passing by in the background, adding a sense of grandeur and importance to the scene. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the types of goods and services that were available to Londoners during the early 19th century. It also serves as a reminder of the rich history and vibrant commerce that has long defined the city's streets.
