Artisan Bronze & Heavy Glass Checkered Apothecary Set
ART OF THE RESCUE This set began as a remarkable find during my digital studio searches—vintage apothecary jars of a weight and quality rarely seen today. At The Crafty Hobbit Rehab & Design, I specialize in identifying these high-caliber "bones" and elevating them with sophisticated hand-painted motifs. These canisters have been reimagined as a luxury vanity set, curated to bring a sense of weight, history, and handcrafted artistry to your modern collection.

ARTISAN DETAILS The centerpiece of this rescue is the transformation of the solid bronze lids. I have hand-rendered my signature black and white checkered pattern across the metal surface, creating a bold, graphic contrast to the industrial warmth of the bronze. The thick, heavy-walled glass remains unpainted to showcase its beautiful vintage clarity and substantial presence.
QUALITY & PRESENCE An exceptionally substantial set with a combined total weight over 3.5 lbs. True to their vintage provenance, these jars feature minor 'flea-bite' character marks along the upper rims. These small imperfections are virtually unseen when the heavy bronze lids are in place and serve as a testament to the history of these rescued glass treasures.
Dimensions: 6.25" H (with lid) x 4.75" L x 3.75" W.
Vintage Character: Includes minor cosmetic surface blemishes, authenticating their vintage provenance.
