Antique “Nosegay” Jar for sale in Agawam, Massachusetts

$19

This unique nosegay jar is antique. How do I know? First because nosegay jars have been out of vogue since the turn of the last century. Second, because of its composition. The metal is old and unusual and the glass jar is hand blown. You can tell that by the bubbles in the glass. Third, because an expert antique dealer told me he didnt know how old it was but it was definitely antique. Its at least vintage because Ive had it for at least 34 years.
What is it for? Flowers! Gentlemen callers, before we became more commercial, picked a small bouquet of flowers (nosegay) from the garden and presented it to his lady to put in her jar. It was sometimes also used to start flowers from cuttings.
It makes a unique conversation piece and looks interesting in any dcor. Would be especially nice for a lady that likes antiques. Set by a window, it looks even better.
