A beautiful antique fruit jar, looks exceptional placed in a kitchen window! This jar has been exposed to a high heat/light source to enrich the purple color that would naturally occur if exposed to sun light for a prolonged period of time. With few exceptions, only clear bottles from before 1914 will turn sun-colored-amethyst. Not only does this deep purple/amethyst color make it a great looking jar, but it also authenticates it as being truly antique.   Lid is stamped "Kerr" and goes onto jar, but seems a little bit large.  An outstanding example with some NICE WAVY WHITTLE marks in the glass, and look at the color, check it out!
