Antique unmarked quart Mason jar with zinc porcelain lined top and a very light touch of purple from manganese used in glass manufacturing process. The jar has been filled with sea-worn quahog shells used in making Native American wampum, all of which were found on the shores of Cape Cod. A unique addition to your home! Jar is very old with bubble seeds throughout and a very light hint of lavender purple from the manganese. The jar seams do not match the seams on the screw top, indicating that the jar was made before 1915, possibly pre-1900. Unmarked, manufacturer unknown.
Condition consistent with age and use. No chips or cracks, natural seed bubbles in glass. Please see photos for details and condition.
Measures approximately 3" round x 7" h.
