Candy Jar

Christian Dorflinger

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a glass candy jar by Christian Dorflinger. The jar has a clear glass body with a narrow base that widens into a rounded section, then tapers to a narrower top. The base is round and flat with a decorative edge. The stem connecting the base to the body is short and has a decorative design. The body of the jar is elongated and has a slight curve. There are decorative lines and ridges around the top and bottom of the body. The lid is also clear glass, with a pointed top and a series of ridges and grooves around its circumference. The lid is attached to the jar by a small lip. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom. The jar casts a faint shadow on the surface below it.
