    Can anyone help identify this glass jar? It has a clear red shaker top but it doesn't look like a salt shaker - maybe confectioner's sugar? The glass is heavy and ribbed. It is 3 3/4" high and 2 3/4" wide. I'm thinking 1950s era? Thanks.

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Looks a LOT nicer than the old tin/aluminum screw top one I've been using for years!!!
