Detailed Description

The 16 oz Glass Muth Jar offers both function and style, making it a staple for honey bottling. Each jar holds approximately 16 oz (454 g) of honey, or about 1 1/3 cups, though its true liquid volume is 10.67 fluid ounces. Since Muth jars are designed specifically for honey, they are traditionally advertised and sold as 16 oz jars.

Muth jars are intended for use with Muth corks which are sold separately. The cork closure maintains the historic design and practical sealing of this classic jar.

When ordering in bulk, a 1/2 pallet measures approximately 40" x 48" x 23", providing a practical option for larger operations.
