Good taste. You come by it Nature's way with Ball... (from a 1974 ad campaign)

{HISTORY}

In the mid-20th century, your jam and jelly jars looked this! With textured glass, known as quilted crystal, and snap-on metal lids with colorful fruit illustrations, these petite worker bees of the kitchen were useful for so many things when it came to food and storage.

That was the Ball way after all. Since the 1920s, these tin-topped jelly tumblers were a beloved storage accessory in the kitchen. Non-threaded glass versions like this trio even became repurposed drinking glasses once all the jam and jelly was consumed.  Today, these jars add a lovely vintage touch to home organization projects, helping to keep your space clean and tidy.

The now harder-to-find metal lids of this batch securely fit the top of each jar with a simple press of the fingers. Since the jars are not threaded, the lids do not screw onto the glass like other canning jars, but instead, hug the rim for a secure fit.

Easily stackable and lightweight, these quilted crystal glasses make great camping and picnic accessories too. There is really no end to their functionality. We guarantee you'll find a million uses for this trio too!

{SPECIAL FEATURES}

- Set of three with lids 

- Two of the jars feature a blank spot on the glass where a label could easily be affixed. The third jar is quilted all the way around.

- Each glass is marked on the bottom with the following info... Ball Quilted Crystal USA and features the Ball logo version that was in production after 1962. 

{CONDITION}

All the jars are in great shape with no chips or cracks. The interior of each of the metal lids bear a little bit of rust along the inside rims as expected with age. The tops of the lids are shiny and bright, free of scratches and contain no rust spots. Please see photos.
