Anchor Hocking 69857AHG17 1/2 Gallon Glass Penny Candy Jar with Chrome Lid

I purchased these after observing one fall from a shelving unit 5 feet off the ground without any breakage, or indeed visible damage of any kind. They are made of very thick glass which lends them durability and a nice weightiness to prevent sliding. The lids are a little cheap comparatively, and feel light in the hand, but when inspected closely are quite rigid with minimal flex. There is no rubber gasket on the interior of the lid, it simply rests against the glass lip on the jar. The fitment of the lid is good, though not air-tight by any means. These are suitable for dry goods like toppings that will not be affected greatly by moisture, but probably won't work for powdered mixes and the like. Overall, I'm pleased with the jars, though I would prefer an option that protects against moisture seeping in through the air and spoiling the product.

I love these jars! Very well packaged so they arrived unbroken with no scratches. We use them for ice cream toppings. The kids love to be able to see the bright colors and watch us dispense!

These jars are pretty but the glass is very weak in many places. If the jars even touch eachother they will both shatter. Forget about any kind of commercial use or dishwasher.

We use several of these for coconut, nuts, and granola. They are just the right size and are easy to clean - very happy with this purchase/cost.

received the item in a timely matter, this is a high quality product, good cost effective way for restaurant owners, will purchase again if needed.

These work fantastic for our penny candy display. People love to see the old candy jars full of penny candy. Gives our store that nostalgic look people love.

Used to hold candy at the desk. Upright, no wobbling, easy to clean, easy to fill, easy to grab candy.

This jar is good for storing candies or cookies. Convenient to use and wash. Gives beauty and decorates any party. A good choice for everyone.

Great quality with a classy look. Kids are easy to get on and off and don’t stick. I like that they don’t have to be screwed on.

This is a very beautiful 1/2 gallon glass candy jar that comes with a chrome lid. Stylish and sleek looking and great to store your wrapped candies in.

These jars are PERFECT for our ice cream shop. We use them to store dry-good toppings such as: oreos, graham crackers, fruity pebbles, etc. Such a cute candy-shop look!

A perfect jar with million and one uses. I use it for candy tables, bakery items and well as toys! Very nostalgic and classic look.

A really nice glass penny candy jar with chrome lid that is beautifully crafted and air tight to lock in freshness. The jar is a great style for penny candy and bulk, unwrapped treats.

It would be nice if the mouth of this jar was big enough to put a 1 cup scoop into it. We use this to make our hot chocolate mix and in order to get all of the ingredients in without spilling over, we have to use a funnel. But, I'm sure it is perfect for candy.

We use these glass jars to store soft granola. They look nice and professional on our counter, the glass is clear and easy to clean. We do put plastic wrap around the opening overnight to make it truly airtight.

Love this glass jar. We put our Pearl Sugar chunks in it so the customer can see what they look like and even taste them if they want. Kids love sampling. Buy a couple and put them on your counter. Be the friendly shop. High quality, thick glass too.
