I love the mod appeal of Grainware, with its chunky and strong geometric styling; a very 1970s Euro look. But this is American made, a style that's not easy to find, and not that old. (1990s or 2000s) With or without goodies inside, it is absolutely gorgeous. Has the perfect clarity of new glass, without the breakability. Original sticker on bottom, very, very faint scratches on bottom edge, otherwise like-new condition. 8” base, 6” high.
Grainware, a Chicago based company, is made from ultra-clear acrylic. For history & more info, refer to the manufacturer Jolly, (jolly-tone.com website):
