dating from the late 19th to early 20th C

Features

  • Pressed or cut glass body: The faceted design with starburst pattern on the base suggests early 1900s pressed or cut glass, often used for tobacco jars to show off the contents and keep them dry yet accessible.
  • Metal lid: The darkened patina and form of the lid indicate it’s likely pewter, silverplate, or tin, common materials used for tobacco jar lids of that era. The snug-fitting lid helped retain moisture or flavor.

 

 

Uses:

  • Traditionally used to store pipe or loose-leaf tobacco.
  • Today, they’re often repurposed as decorative containers, candy jars, or bathroom or desk storage.
