This Test Tube with Rim is a borosilicate glass tube designed for handling, observing, and working with small amounts of liquids and samples. It is useful for checking solution clarity and colour, watching simple reaction changes, or portioning small sample volumes during testing and experimentation. The rimmed top edge gives it a more defined finish and makes it a practical addition to general lab, studio, and formulation work. It is intended for sample handling and observation rather than sealed long-term storage.
♡ Why we love it: It is a practical little essential for careful sample work. The clear borosilicate glass makes visual checks easy, while the rimmed edge gives it a more finished, easy-to-handle feel for everyday testing and small-scale experimentation.
