In Your Space
Display on a windowsill to catch diffused light, or on a shelf alongside raw wood and aged brass. The frosted finish pairs beautifully with neutral, earthy palettes. Lid-on or lid-off both work.
Object Details & Provenance
A counterculture icon cast in frosted glass. This lidded candy jar by the Indiana Glass Company is molded in the unmistakable form of the VW Bus — the vehicle that defined a generation of wanderers and slow-road believers — rendered here in a soft, diffused frosted finish that holds light differently than the clear or blue variants. Warm, luminous, quietly rare.
