Weck 745 1 L Tulip Jar

The Weck 745 1 L Tulip Jar is popular for to-go salads, pickles, canning, dry food storage and home decor.

Now they make some of the most tried-and-true jars on the market for preserving, storing, and serving. Featuring removable, rust-free glass lids with sealing gaskets to keep your goods airtight, these jars come in an array of shapes and sizes. From freshly-squeezed juice, to pickles, preserves, spices, and to-go salads, there’s not much they can’t hold.
