The Food52 Vintage Shop Vintage French Green Canning Jar, Multiple Sizes on Food52

July 18,2024

These Food52 Vintage Shop French green jars are made from heavy green glass with metal hinges. They may be retired from canning, but full of decor potential..
These are jars with a good story: the team at Elsie Green met a collector at a brocante in Le Mans while traveling through France and somehow got themselves invited back to his farmhouse where he had a big and beautiful collection of these vintage French canning jars. Each stunner is made from heavy green glass with metal hinges. They're retired from their useful life of canning, but we can think of so many other good ways to use them—as vase, as utensil crock, as loose change holder, and more. We'll leave you to your imaginations If you're an antique glass enthusiast like us, then you might also want to give these colorful French olive oil bottles a gander as well as these prettily-patterned glass ice buckets, which will make your bottle of bubbly look extra elegant.
