- Item Description
What Character! Can you imagine how many hands have stole a biscuit (or cookie as we call it) out of this jar.
This glass jar, or Biscuit Barrel has lasted many a rush for biscuits all these years. There is a english registration mark on the bottom, the number reads 34825. This number dates the jar to 1895.
The Biscuit Barrel is in overall wonderful condition. There are No Chips or Cracks. The jars base is polished, we believe it was once silver plated but it is now a beautiful brass with a wonderful patina. The lid still has the original silverplate on the side. The finial is of the era, but may not be the original. It has a lovely swing carrying handle.
A darling piece for the biscuit barrel enthusiasts. What a fantastic Christmas it would be, with colorful cookies this jar, waiting to be gobbled up! Enjoy.
