This is a pair of miniature carafes or jugs, made in Sweden and imported by Jones & Co. into the UK. A discussion on their identification can be seen at https://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,73630.new.html#new. Jones & Co. were importers of primarily Swedish glassware most of it originating from Lindshammar Glasbruk of Vetlanda and designed by Gunnar Ander. The foil label would originally have showed the JC logo with the “Made in Sweden” legend.
The jugs are in excellent condition. This means, of course, that they show age related wear and tear commensurate with some use.
The jugs are roughly in the shape of hourglasses. They are blown in green and amethyst glass and measure 4.8 cm (1.9 inches) in diameter at their bases. The jugs are 12 cm (4.8 inches) in height to the top of the pouring spouts. The handles were first applied to the bottom of the jugs and then finished off at the top. There are no chips, cracks, significant scratches or any evidence of restoration. The green one retains a foil label but there is no decipherable writing on it.
Each jug weighs 75 g. (~ 3 oz.).
