HUGE 5-PIECE VINTAGE PRESSED GLASS STACKING APOTHECARY SODA FOUNTAIN CANDY JAR GORGEOUS and HUGE, VINTAGE PRESSED GLASS STACKING APOTHECARY JAR / CANDY JAR / CANISTER / COMPOTE with LID COVER / CANDY DISH. I don't know the glassmaker or the exact age, possibly Indiana Glass. My best guess would be mid century, about 30-40 years old. The jar consists of a large bottom/base section, 3 smaller candy dish sections and a pointed finial lid. Very hard to find with the APPROPRIATE BASE PIECE! Unique piece of old pharmacy/drug store soda fountain, ice cream parlor, cafe, diner, general store counter memorabilia! An ideal display piece to show off your Easter candies! :-) HUGE SIZE: There are FOUR SECTIONS + THE LID. COMBINED height of about 15-1/4" TALL! The individual sections each measure 6" diameter x 2-1/4" tall. The BIG BASE measures 5-1/4" tall x 6" diameter at the mouth x 6-3/4" diameter at the bottom. Each section sits inside the other sections and rests on a ridge. The stack is very stable, no fear of toppling over. The glass is thick, sturdy, and bright, and the pattern is very deeply and crisply pressed. This is a HEAVY stacking jar...weighing in at over 8-1/2 POUNDS before packing! This is a SERIOUS jar! :-) EXCELLENT CONDITION! NO CRACKS! She DOES have a couple small areas of MINOR roughness to the mouths of two of the small sections...nothing objectionable and easiest to locate by feel. Nothing that detracts from the display of this jar at all...she is beautiful! Her seams are prominent and you can feel them. The LID IS PERFECT! There are some little bubbles, some swirls, and some strawmarks, typical of vintage pressed glass. There is some sporadic VERY light, fine scratching...nothing at all objectionable and not noticeable at all. There is sporadic manufacturer mold edge roughness, a very common finding. This is a SPECTACULAR jar...a towering beauty! You won't be disappointed, she is an absolute TREASURE and she displays beautifully!
