Item Description
A rare pair of exquisite handcrafted large alabaster apothecary jars featuring domed, sturdy lids and beautifully veined exteriors that are smooth and cool to the touch. Not identical in design, one has a ridge pattern around the top and the lids knobs are different, but they are the same size in height and diameter. A few tiny notches on lids under rims, commensurate with age and use. French or Italian. Would be prefect for storing rice or pasta.
These hand carved 19th century jars were used to store ointments, oils and medicines to keep them pure and unspoiled.
