From a recent estate sale here in the Dallas area, here's an antique crystal biscuit or cracker jar with a silverplate top.  The clear crystal base has a lovely etched floral design.  The lid and handle are Sheffield silverplate by William Briggs.  

 

The base measures about 6 inches tall and is about 4½ inches square. 


The lid is marked Wm. Briggs.  Please review pictures.

 

This piece is in excellent condition with no nicks, cracks or repairs.
