    Description

    This is a wonderful dark rich blue stretch glass candy jar (without lid) featuring the pattern "#636" made by the Harry C. Northwood Glass Company of Wheeling, West Virginia, circa early 1920s.
    The base jar is 6-paneled and although it does not have its original lid, it is perfectly functional and is a stunning piece of stretch glass.
    Excellent condition. No chips, cracks, or restorations.
    There are the usual internal air bubbles and straw marks (shearing and crimping tool marks) commonly associated with the hand manufacturing of old carnival, opalescent and EAPG. Each piece of this old fabulous glass is unique, no two pieces are identical.
