RARE Vtg EMPOLI Italy AMBER GLASS Apothecary Jar 17.5” Pedestal Base/W Lid For Sale

RARE Vintage EMPOLI Italy AMBER GLASS Apothecary Jar- Pedestal Base/W Lid

Size 17.5" high with lid. Without lid, the jar is 11" high. Opening of jar is 4" diameter and interior gets much larger at lower base. Round pedestal base foot is 4 5/8" diameter.

Completely hand blown, genuine circa 1960s

Features a warm amber colored glass with a SPECTACULAR, exaggerated teardrop shaped finial on lid.

This apothecary jar is quite unusual, in that the lid and the base have a lovely rounded 'ballooned' shape, with a narrower center. The center has 2 rounded bands- one at top and one at base.

Lid fits securely down into the jar with a wide lip

Excellent condition- without flaws. No damage- no nicks chips scratches or signs of use or wear inside or out. The tippy-top point of the teardrop finial has a slightly rough pinpoint at top, and upon looking under a magnifying glass, it is simply a little extra glass from the hand-blowing process. There are a couple of small air bubbles here and there which are few and far between and quite minor/hard to notice.

A gorgeous piece, would look very nice for display anywhere andis a generously eye-catching size. Makes a fantastic 'statement piece' size.

Great for a collector! This is a rare one- hard to find.

Ships fully insured & w tracking provided. This is a LARGE and delicate piece of glass, and it will be packaged meticulously to make sure it arrives at your door in pristine/undamaged condition
