A 7 inch tall x 5 inch wide light SUN COLORED AMETHYST (SCA) fancy antique CIGAR or CANDY display jar. This jar is of top quality craftmanship made of SUPER HEAVY, SUPER THICK blown glass, beveled, and the base has a large molded SUN BURST pattern on it. This is an ORIGINAL ANTIQUE Blown Glass jar dating back to the late 1800's.
This antique jar is a cigar jar, it has a hollow 'button' handle on the top of the lid. Back in the day a moist piece of sponge/fabric was kept in this hollow to act as a humidifier to keep the cigars fresh. This is an incredibly ornate and well built vessel. It is blown of thick, heavy glass, and it is of fancy beveled design. It was designed and fashioned like this to compliment its place on the counter of a saloon or store, which is also why it was so well built, to survive the handling and ravishes of time. These types of ornate glass jars were not mass produced or sold commercially per se, but this is a jar that was made to last and to be displayed while it was in service, and to be used over and over again, and it still stands strong today, check it out!
