Unusual vintage glass canning jar or canister dated August 28 1900. The
glass lid is held in place with two wire clasps at the sides, sort of a Weck
type closure. The jar measures 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" x 8" tall to the top of the
lid.
There's wear and age to the red rubber seal, and some slight edge roughness
to the glass from production and / or use. The glass is nice and clear
without age discoloration or purpling - overall, this is a very nice piece
in excellent condition for it's age.
