With the abnormally warm weather I've been hitting some new spots on the water with a lot of success. Here's something I decided to take home for some reason that I'm not familiar with. It's an aqua color with almost a milk type of top, just wider. It's got the letters GKL or GLK, something like that. I was thinking it's some kind of food and not something too significant. Anyone seen one?
Thanks! ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1453078939.289199.jpg ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1453078965.754050.jpg

Neat find I would think it's food related or a candle votive. I have no idea. Is that lip applied?

No, it's like a milk bottle in that I think it was made in a press and blow process so the seam stops below the top but it's not applied.

I bet its dairy related. Cheese or cream or butter. Just a guess.

I want to think it's dairy related because that lip just screams dairy, and like you said bottlehunterofcoscob, it looks like a machine-made milk bottle kind of top, but I'm thinking it could almost be like a pickled onion or pepper kind of jar. Let's see the bottom, and a closer shot of that seam running up to the lip!

I love that beautiful monogram on the front, wow, what a beautiful jar!

Hard to get a good shot of the seam, but like a milk bottle it fades away before the lip.

Early baby food jar from Glaxo Smith Kline is my guess...
