An olive-green glass pickling jar from early 18th century France. These one-of-a-kind jars vary in size and hue by their handmade nature, making them easy to collect. Rare and highly sought-after, what may be mistaken as imperfections: tilted mouths, bubbles and ripples in the glass, are actually the very attributes that make these such cherished antiques. Originally used to store pickles, vegetables, fruits, truffles and other food sundries, today the transparency makes these wonderful vases and can be placed throughout the home for an added pop of color and texture.
