With detail after detail that shows the care and effort that the maker took in creating such a gem. From the round feet with their padded indentation. To the carved floral finial at the top of the lid. And what a lid – it has 4 borders – engraved beautifully. The glass insert combines cut glass with dozens of pencil thin folds and then 6 triangles. In the glass with etched florals. There is an engraved set if initials on the lid. Looks like part of the design. BUT it does have the damage – crack at the base that. Runs up the side as pictured in the last photo. It holds together when you remove. It from its cage. Fill it with crackers. Leave it by itself. It’s something to look at – even with its imperfection. If it were perfect. The item “ANTIQUE ENGLISH GLASS BISCUIT JAR IN A SILVER PLATED CAGE & HANDLE” is in sale since Friday, February 24, 2017.
