I remember my childhood best friend had these at her house, her mother was a painter and rode her bike around town in heeled garden clogs, she wore lipstick everyday and it was always all over her toothbrush. coming from a tupperware home, these jars felt special, and cold leftovers tasted better eaten straight out of them. I don’t currently own any but I think I’ll buy a set when I’m done moving around.
There are few things more beautiful than glass. Someone once told me that glass is actually one of the strongest materials, but I can’t explain why because I don’t remember the specifics. Some glassware approaches an impossibly perfect form. I like paperweights, perfume bottles, and pitchers. I’m resuming my collection soon, but first I need to save some money.
