This form is a jar with a lid. I used a light blue glaze over a black glaze which creates a mottled effect. I would use this as a salt cellar, or sugar bowl/jar/bathroom storage for qtips and cotton. Also, it would work for a larger candle holder. Again, it's up to you how you use it! As with all my pottery, it is one of a kind. I can make another one in a different color, but i can't always guarantee how the glaze and clay will work and play together. So, if you like this one, i would encourage you to order it.
