Vintage jars are from the 1970s or earlier, with embossed logos and a lot of history. Modern jars are generally made after the 1970s, or are still in production today.

Every jar is checked for chips, cracks and rust, whichever era it's from.

Given their age, we have to assume these jars are used. Some have slight signs of aging, like small scratches in the surface.

The glass jar and glass lid are dishwasher safe. Take the wire bail off before washing, though. It's mostly zinc, so it will corrode.

We don't actually give out canning advice because we're jar experts, not canning experts! You can visit FreshPreserving.com or Bernardin.ca. (Fun fact: Bernardin, Ball, Kerr and Golden Harvest are all owned and manufactured by Newell Brands, their parent company.)

No, we don't value or date jars, though we do love to see pictures of your collections. We recommend The Red Book of Fruit Jars by Douglas M. Leybourne Jr. for your jar valuation needs. Keep in mind that collector value and market value can vary wildly.

Keep checking back. We add new treasures every week! Make sure you're signed up for our email list and social media channels, as we often share pre-order opportunities and restock details there.

Sometimes, depending on the size and quality of a collection. Please email us a complete itemized list with plenty of pictures and your asking price.

Jar donations (old and new) are always accepted at our retail store location. Click here for details.
