Description

You are viewing a gorgeous and rare early 20th Century Vaseline Uranium glass optic apothecary jar. I obtained 2 very similar pieces at an estate of a rare vaseline glass collector 5 years ago, so I was delighted to find this one.  The others are long sold, but this is your opportunity to add a rare and hard to find piece to your collection.
This is a difficult piece to research, because you don't run across a similar one often. The estate auction represented the origin as from Ohio River Region glass companies in the early 1900's, but could not name the maker. I have found nothing definitive to contradict that claim. This work of art stands 9.75" high and is about 7.5" in diameter at the widest spot.
Lovely! I pack well for safe delivery. Shipping includes full insurance and USPS Priority.
Note: Due to continued delays for items shipped USPS, I am now recommending buyers choose UPS Ground, the cheaper option, at checkout. One in 4 packages I send USPS is delayed 2- 3 weeks.
Please note: I use bright light in these photos to make sure condition is fully visible to prospective buyers. This piece in normal light appears more green than it may on your screen. The ball lid handle in last photo is more of the true color.

PLEASE NOTE:
I no longer ship through USPS due to their delays and poor customer service. I do offer a cheaper shipping through UPS that you may choose at check out, so don't be discouraged by the shipping cost which shows on listing. You can go to the shipping under the listing and see the cost for UPS ground. I have been a loyal USPS customer for years, but I am having an increased amount of packages experiences long long delays.
