Post by: Marjoke on May 20, 2015, 05:29:02 PM

Hello,
Does anyone know this jar? Where its from (Country and factory) and where its used for?
It has been in my family for about a 100 years.

Would like to know something about it.
Thanks
Marjoke

Thanks both of you. I Looked into the French link. And it is indeed very similar to my jar.
Thank you for the quick reply.
