Looking for info PRISON embossed bottle

[MSZ]

Hello everyone, came across this little aqua bottle embossed PRISON. Does anyone have any info on this one, was PRISON a brand name....or may it be related to a penitentiary?

Bottle looks English and I know they embossed bottles for a lot of different institutions.

Very interesting, never seen one of those before. I agree that it looks like it's from the UK, Prison seems like a pretty weird brand name so I suspect it really was something for use in a prison infirmary.

Bad mould? Should read "POISON"?

Seller is using old bottles and etc. to make moulds for her candles.
She probably has the same bottle.
Search "freshpastrystand".
Contact the candle seller and find out.

The 'PRISON' bottles, although scarce, are well known UK bottles and come in a range of sizes, types and colours.
Used in HM Prison dispensaries some further examples are shown below.
