Circa: 1800's
Manufacturer: unknown
Antique biscuit jar. The handle has an EPNS mark on it but no maker's marks. This is quite an oldie; made 1800's to before 1917. The glass glows a very strong yellow under a black light. If it is just sitting on a shelf, it looks great; if you look at it up close it has a lot of age and wear; bubbles in the glass; some scratching; straw lines; and the lid has some tiny dents which do not show when it is on the jar; etc. See close up photos 7-8. I polished the lid but not the rim. I leave the fine polishing to you. I think its a great old jar despite the age/wear, if you love authentic antique items! It stands 7 inches tall up to lid finial, not counting the handle. 6/16
