Know before you buy
The lid is designed as a traditional pottery cover and does not feature a rubber gasket or airtight seal. It is best suited for short-term storage or as a decorative display piece.
To preserve the vintage finish and integrity of the pottery, we recommend hand washing with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the heat and harsh detergents can damage the glaze over time.
Like most vintage-style pottery, the McCoy ceramic is durable but can chip if handled roughly or bumped against hard surfaces. It is a solid, weighted piece, but it should be treated with the same care as other ceramic kitchenware.
This jar features a classic round silhouette typical of McCoy pottery. While exact measurements can vary slightly due to the handmade nature of the production, it is sized to hold a standard batch of cookies comfortably on a countertop.
Absolutely. While designed for treats, its size and removable lid make it an excellent vessel for storing tea bags, coffee pods, or even as a decorative catch-all in a kitchen or living space.
