Black glass enamelled ginger jar
« on: April 23, 2024, 07:29:19 PM »
Hi Guys,
Can anyone identify this for me please. This is the lid of a black matt glass floral enamelled (or painted) ginger jar. I am really hoping top replace this for a really dear friend of mine. It was purchased 35 years ago by her children & she recently broke the base into too many pieces for it to be fixed. She is so upset it was her most treasured possession because of the story. This is the lid.Thanks for any help xx

I think you'll find it very difficult to find a replacement. It's hard to see the detail of the enamelling because you photo is out of focus but it might possibly be Bohemian, you don't say whether it was bought new so it might be anything from late Victorian to mid 20th. century.
