Blue Ball Perfect Mason Jars are the epitome of the classic vintage look.
Often a jar lover's first love, there's nothing quite like the color of a Blue Ball Perfect Mason Jar.
There are endless ways to enjoy these uniquely colored jars. Set multiples together on a table as a centerpiece (perfect for weddings!), or use a single jar to hold wildflowers in your windowsill.
Each jar we offer has the perfect blue hue as shown in the listing pictures and is in very good vintage condition with no major chips or cracks. Minor flea bites, small rim chips, bubbles, warbles, and general imperfections in the glass that do not hinder the use of the jar are common and should be expected in jars of this age.
Measurements and other information:
This age (1910-1923) Ball Perfect Mason jar has the classic Ball logo and the words "Perfect Mason" on two lines (centred) beneath the Ball logo.
This jar style stands just under 7 inches tall without a lid and 3 3/4 inches in diameter at the base, though it is important to note that jars of this age often have an irregular shape and are not a perfect circle around or at the base.
This is a regular mouth jar and the inside diameter of the opening is 2 1/4 to 2 3/8 inches, 2 5/8 on the outside of the opening.
We offer original Ball Zinc lids (coming soon) as well as a host of other regular mouth lid options. This listing is for one jar as shown; jars do not come with a lid so that you can choose exactly what you want to pair it with.
*Here at Mason Jar Merchant we do offer more than one jar of this style for sale when we can. The picture may not be the jar you are sold, but every effort is made to make sure the jar you get is of the same or better quality as shown in the photos. All major jar style options are noted, numbers and markings on the bottom of jars will vary.*
All jars are guaranteed to be chip, crack, and rust free, though vintage jars can have very slight "flea bites" in the rim that do not affect the performance of the jar.
