Glass Retort, borosilicate glass, with ground glass stopper.
Here it is: the elusive chemist's retort. Long a symbol of chemistry
itself (and of its predecessor, alchemy), the retort's basic design dates
back to ancient times. No chemist should be without a retort to decorate
the laboratory! 
The retort was used for distillations, sometimes in conjunction with
an additional condensing coil (depending on what was being distilled). Early
textbooks had experiments that made considerable use of the retort.
The retort's long spout acts as an air condenser. Although the retort
fell out of use after the invention of the water-jacketed condenser (Liebig,
Graham), it remains useful for some applications.• Wear safety goggles and follow appropriate lab precautions.
