Hey everyone,

I found this recently at a flea market and it was two weird to pass up. The jar is larger than a half gallon, has a ground lip and is made of very thick and heavy glass (possibly Australian?). If anyone has an idea on what this jar could be I would love to know.

I’ve never seen an American jar made of this thick of glass but I have several jars from Australia (not Austria phone auto correct lol) that are of similar weight and glass thickness.
