I am happy to offer a Pomona retired L'Imperatrice Plum 3.25 inch high (not including the lid) small canister or spice jar. This jar is the older style spice jar which is not as wide and does not have a lip on the top edge like newer jars. Pomona spice jars were not normally produced in this older shape. The Plum motif has the original black accent edges.

The rare spice jar is in excellent shiny condition with a lid that has very nice varnish and a tight fitting seal. It is in great shape with shiny glaze, excellent transfer, and no crazing. Please to see the detailed photos and description below...


Both forms, with black and purple accents, was retired years ago and is no longer available.

---> Plum Close Up <---

Size	A little over 3" high without the lid and 2-3/8" across the bottom
Transfer	Perfect with no flaws and has great color
Ground	Very white
Glaze	No crazing, no flaws, and very shiny glaze overall
Chips/Cracks	None
Stains	None anywhere, except for a minute bit of shelf wear on the unglazed bottom foot ring where it sits on a surface. Please see the photo below.
Use Marks	None
Other Comments	The lid is a wooden lid with straight sides, typical of the original spice jar shape. The wood and varnish condition is excellent with no dry or cracked varnish spots as is so common on older Portmeirion wooden lids. The gasket is excellent and holds a very tight seal. An excellent older style Pomona spice jar in wonderful condition!

The ID mark is a ornate round Goddess of Fruit backstamp in brown. It was made in the early 1980's.
