A cheerful ceramic biscuit jar decorated with two stylised hens, a cupcake, eggs and small floral motifs in a charming country-kitchen design.

The cream-coloured jar is labelled Biscuits in coordinating red, grey and black lettering. One hen has striped and spotted detailing, while the second has a dark grey body with white polka dots and a red patterned wing. The removable lid is finished in glossy red with white spots and a large integrated carrying handle.

Its warm cream, red, grey and taupe colour palette gives the jar plenty of retro farmhouse and kitsch kitchen appeal. It would make an attractive worktop storage container or decorative display piece for a chicken collector, country-kitchen enthusiast or lover of quirky kitchenware.

The underside retains part of its original product label, including the number 1356 and wording that appears to identify the design as a Black & White Hen Jar. No manufacturer’s name or country of production is visible.

Condition

The biscuit jar remains an attractive pre-owned display and storage piece with bright decoration and a glossy finish. No chips, cracks or repairs are visible in the supplied photographs. Fine glaze crazing is visible in several areas, particularly around the opening, body and underside, together with light surface marks, small dark specks and signs of previous handling. The underside foot rim has noticeable contact wear and dark storage marks. The original paper product label is incomplete, torn and worn. No rubber or silicone airtight seal is present, and the jar has not been tested for long-term food storage. The underside states that it is not suitable for microwave or dishwasher use, so careful hand washing is recommended. Please examine all photographs carefully, as they form an important part of the description and show the exact jar and condition that will be received.
