These beautiful canister jars in the Colonial Blue color were made between 1968-1983. It's a popular color! This is the largest size jar from the set of four graduated sizes. It is 11 1/2 inches tall with the lid on, and 5 3/4 inches wide. The pattern is named Moon and Star, (not plural), and consists of elongated thumbprint shapes with round "moon" shapes below them, and a "star" or flower shape in the middle of the moon. It was called the 5 pound jar by the manufacturer. It weighs 4 pounds 12 ounces before packing for shipping.

The jar has 2 tiny chips in the top rim -- one is a flake 6 mm by 5 mm, and the other is 3mm by 2 mm. There are a few pinprick nicks in the inner edge, some of which I think were created when the neck was ground to fit the lid. The lid has a tiny nick, less than 1 mm, in the edge of the top, 2 tiny chips 2x2 mm, and a few minuscule pinprick nicks in the bottom rim.

This will be shipped by either UPS Ground or USPS Ground Advantage rate (except for International). The height of this jar causes it to be shipped in an "oversize" box. But if it costs less than estimated, I will refund the extra. Local delivery is always available for free to a mutually agreed upon meeting place. This cannot be shipped by UPS to a post office box. Please contact me before purchase, if you need to have it shipped to a PO Box.

I am happy to answer your questions about this piece.
