This clear glass container is not as simple as it seems - up close the details of hand craftmanship are visible, and the details in the lid not only make it grip better in your hand, but are visually interesting. No rubber gasket, this glass jar fits tight by it's size and texture of the glass around the rim. The lid edge has a few small nicks, but those are only visible when the lid is off and inspected. Stands about 11" tall. Gorgeous piece of storage ware!
