This 6-inch canister jar has the same rounded lid and knob as our cobalt storage jars, but the pattern is different. Instead of an all-blue floral, the artisan painted a repeating leaf and petal trellis in cobalt blue, white and mustard yellow, wrapped around the body like a lattice. The lid carries a smaller version of the same pattern, topped with the same rounded blue knob you'll find across the Multani jar collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much can this canister hold?
The 4-inch opening fits ground spices, loose tea, whole coffee beans, or dried herbs easily. At 6 inches tall, it holds roughly 2 to 3 cups of dry goods.
Does the lid keep the jar airtight?
The ceramic lid sits in a snug fitted groove, close enough to keep out humidity and slow spices going stale. It isn't a rubber-gasket seal like a mason jar, so don't use it for liquids.
Will the yellow in the pattern fade or rub off?
No. The blue, white and yellow are painted under the glaze and fired in the kiln, so the colour won't wash off or fade with normal handling. Just avoid harsh scrubbing, like with any hand-painted piece.
Is this jar only for the kitchen, or can I use it as decor?
Plenty of customers buy this design to sit on a shelf or console table. The trellis pattern works well as a standalone piece, and it holds spices or tea just as well if you want it to earn its keep.
How do I clean it?
Hand wash with mild soap and warm water, or wipe with a damp cloth. Skip the dishwasher and abrasive scrubbers, since they can dull the glaze over time.
Handcrafted in Multan, Pakistan. Since every jar is hand-painted, the trellis pattern and the exact shade of yellow will vary slightly from jar to jar. That's normal for handmade blue pottery, not a defect.
