Unfortunately, I can't find the file I saved with this info but, IIRC (and I
think I do), powders were kept in leather pouches (larger amounts) and/or in
folded parchment (purchased at the apothecary). Small caskets (e.g., hinged
wooden or metal boxes) were also used (for travel).
I have not seen any pictures suggesting glass was an option for powders but
this reflects my lack of research in the area rather than knowledge.
