Available

Antique English biscuit barrel with a clear etched glass body, silver-tone metal lid, rim, and swing handle. Traditionally used as a biscuit jar, it can also be styled today as a vintage cookie jar, candy jar, kitchen display jar, or collectible decorative container. Product type: antique biscuit barrel / biscuit jar / cookie jar. Material: clear etched glass with silver-tone metal lid, rim, and swing handle. Design: etched bow, swag, star, floral, and garland decoration. Size: 13 cm high / 5.1 in, 18 cm high with raised handle / 7.1 in, diameter 13.8 cm / 5.4 in. The glass body appears to be hand-blown, with a polished pontil mark visible on the base. The metal mount bears hallmarks and appears to be attributed to William Hutton & Sons Ltd. Based on the maker’s mark and style, this piece is likely early 20th century and likely pre-1930. The exact metal content has not been professionally tested, so it is described here as silver-tone metal rather than sterling silver. Possible uses: antique biscuit barrel, vintage cookie jar, candy jar, kitchen display jar, collectible glass jar, English antique decor, dining room display, vintage shelf decor, gift for antique glass collectors. Condition: antique condition with age-related signs of use. Please review all photos carefully. Light surface marks, reflections, small signs of age, and natural irregularities from old glassmaking may be present. Care: wipe gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not place in the dishwasher. Avoid soaking the metal mount or using harsh cleaners. Visit our shop to discover additional styles—find the one that speaks to you! Thank you for visiting! 😊
