Antique Masons Patent Nov 30th 1858 Hero Cross Quart Jar Aqua Blue Glass Canning Fruit Jar Circa 1880-1910 Zinc Lid Rim Chips

Welcome to MokiandMamaBear!

Antique Mason's Patent Nov 30th 1858 quart fruit jar in aqua blue glass, embossed with the Hero Cross above the lettering, circa 1880 to 1910. The 1858 date refers to John Mason's original patent for the screw top jar, not the year this jar was made. The glass is full of small seed bubbles and shows visible mold seams typical of early jars, and the base is marked with mold number 2. Comes with a plain zinc lid.

A great piece for fruit jar collectors or for farmhouse and primitive decor. Perfect as a vase for dried flowers or branches, for pantry storage, or displayed in a sunny window where the aqua glass and bubbles catch the light.

Ball Triple L and Ball Perfect Mason jars are also available in our shop.

Good antique condition. No cracks noted. A few small chips around the rim, shown in photos. Rust staining on the threads from old lids, normal surface wear on the base, and age wear on the zinc lid.

Embossed Hero Cross and Mason's Patent Nov 30th 1858. Base marked 2.
