SOLD Set of 3 glass apothecary canister jars.

Multiple uses for this set of three mold blown covered jars.  Useful in kitchen.  Great for storing beans, herbs, Ice-cream toppings, etc.  Hold cotton balls, q-tips, etc. in the vanity.  Perfect for snacks or candy.  Work well as humidors (air-tight).  Perfect at the bar holding your favorite condiments.

Imported and stocked at Gump's in San Franciso during the late 1960s to early 1970s. Made by Takahashi, a famous mid-century Japanese art glass and art pottery maker. 

Hollow daisey lids are hand-ground to fit the hand-ground necks (provides for air-tight fit). Rims are hand-finished.  Contains straw marks and some trapped air bubbles, a result of hand-made hippie era glass.
All are in great condition.  Glass is translucent with no staining.  No chips or cracks. 
Measure 6" tall with lid on.  Base is 4" wide.  Girth is 12.5" around.  Measurements vary slightly due to the hand-made process.
