This Early American Pattern Glass jar was produced by the Co-operative Flint Glass Company of Beaver Falls, PA circa 1887 and is in the shape of a beehive. The pressed glass jar has a lid with a small cut out for the spoon. Although it's in the shape of a beehive and one would think of it as a honey pot, the company actually advertised it as a mustard jar.
This piece measures 4 3/4" in height and 3" diagonally across the base.
A similar form was reproduced by LE Smith Glass for Martha Stewart but not in this beautiful red color.
That is pretty neat. Glass over 100 years old is something special.
fortapache, Thank you so much for the comment :)
