My young nephew found this little jar. We have never seen a jar like this before and we are wondering how old it might be or what it might have been used for?
Thank you

Years and years ago when I was just starting out I think I found one of those with the lid still on, I think it had glue in it or some other office supply.

neat. can't tell, is it to big to be a salt shaker?

Hmm, I think so. The height is right but I think it might be too wide?
Thanks for the response though :) It is neat looking. We've found/bought other little jars and bottles but this one is our favourite.

Oh interesting! I didn't even know glue came in glass jars.

My first reaction was it contained something either toxic or spicy. The ribs create a tactile impression designed to caution whomever is holding it. Other than that, I have no clue.
