The "Lightning" closure mechanism, patented in 1882, features a wire bail that clamps the glass lid down over a rubber seal, creating an airtight seal. Kearns Gorsuch was a glass company that produced various types of jars and bottles in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These jars are now sought after by collectors of antique and vintage canning equipment or those interested in primitive and farmhouse decor. 1.5” jar mouth width 5” deep 6” jar/lid height No chips, cracks or breaks
