Amberina Glass Canister with Moon and Star Pattern
Lovely quarter gallon Moon and Star canister jar in dark tangerine. Made by LE Smith, circa 1930s – 1940s. Thick mold blown glass with pontil scar on seat (left by the makers tool). Made with a 4-part mold, lids were 2-part. Has a solid band of bottom-wear which is found on the seats of very old glass caused by years of shelf-wear. SOLID bands are considered an asset as they prove old age and are not considered damage.
This canister is beautiful in a bright spot in the kitchen. Handy for storage of all kinds. It measures 7″ tall and weighs 2½ lbs.
