A large utilitarian, but decorative, clear jar with a peanut finial that was used on a store counter to sell peanuts, cookies, or biscuits. The base has embossed words BISCUITS, COOKIES, AND PEANUTS around the shoulder as well as ribs encircling it. This helps make it resemble a barrel. The lid fits the jar well and has a peanut finial. It has a rubber ring to help keep air out of the jar. The very shallow rounded foot shows wear from movement on a surface. A molded mark on the base reads MADE IN ITALY. 6 ½ in (16.5 cm) diameter x 10 in (25.4 cm) tall. Weighs 5 lbs 8.5 oz. There are a couple of chips on the rim of the lid and one by the peanut finial. They are small and don’t take away from the look. There is a small chip on the jar’s inner mouth rim. There are wear marks on the jar from usage. There are manufacture flaws like bubbles and lines in the base. The rubber seal is a bit warped and hard, and does not attach to either to the lid or the base. It does rest well between the lid and the base and keep the two from scratching or chipping each other, as well as keeps most air out of the interior. A large jar to use as a cookie jar. It can have so many uses. We just ask that you notify us before returning and obtain our authorization. This will ensure quick processing.
