==================== #01 ====================



Nineteen Spice and/or Herb Jars by Gresham Marketing 1989
This set of nineteen spice jars was collected by my late father
- it was supposed to be a set of twenty-five and he didn't buy them all for some strange reason
They are porcelain with gold edging and stand about 4.75 inches high
and were sold by Gresham Marketing in 1989 according to the base
and are called "The Flower Fairy Spice Jars"
Each one has a different picture on the front and a description of the herb on the reverse
In all they are quite attractive
The lid's have a rubber seal
and I would say that most of them will need to be replaced if being used
Most also have their original contents, which are well past their prime!!
Thank you for looking

"The Flower Fairy Spice Jars" - A collection of 25
This is the description from the bottom of one of the jars
"The Flower Fairy Spice Jars - A collection of 25 - Copyright 1989 Estate Cicely Mary Barker"
These are some sort of china
They are undamaged - no missing lids, no cracks on lids or jars
However, a couple of the rubber seals have perished over the years
Also included is a wooden display rack that came with the set
A really pretty set
I've labelled them as "used" although they have really only been on display
They would suit a 'cottagey' type of kitchen
