This was my grandmother's. There are no markers on it. I always thought it was a candy jar. Any ideas of origin would be welcome... Thanks!

TallCakes, you are too kind... Thanks so much for the speedy delivery of very relevant info for this candy jar! :)
you are very welcome. I should also have mentioned that this type of high end glass from the depression era is called 'Elegant Glass'.
Tall Cakes, I love that this piece has a name now! I didn't know it was Depression Glass much less "high end." Thanks so much again...
Thanks Bellin68!!
