The LAV Çilek (Strawberry) Jar is a charming, vintage-inspired glass container that is most commonly used as a sugar bowl, jam jar, or candy dish. Its name, "Çilek" (Turkish for Strawberry), comes from its distinctive textured pattern that mimics the seeds and shape of a strawberry. ## Technical Specifications Feature Details Model Code CILEKS1X (1 jar) Capacity 255 cc (~8.5 oz) Height 60 mm (without lid) / ~120 mm (total with lid) Material High-quality, lead-free Turkish glass Lid Type Matching glass lid with a small knob ## Design & Functionality Strawberry Texture: The glass is embossed with a "seed" pattern. When filled with red jam or colorful candies, the jar takes on the visual appearance of a giant strawberry. Compact & Decorative: At 255ml, it is intentionally small. It’s designed to be a tabletop accessory rather than a bulk storage canister—perfect for serving sugar cubes with tea or individual portions of jam at breakfast. High Clarity: Like all LAV glass, it is designed to be crystal clear, allowing the contents (like colorful Turkish delight or gold-wrapped chocolates) to become part of the decor. Safety: It is non-porous and healthier than plastic for storing sugary goods, as it won't absorb odors or flavors. ## Recommended Uses The Breakfast Table: Perfect for honey, marmalade, or strawberry jam. Tea & Coffee Service: Used traditionally for sugar cubes (kesme şeker) or small chocolates (lokum). Vanity Organization: Many users repurpose this jar for the bathroom to hold cotton swabs or jewelry, as the lid keeps dust out. ## Care Instructions Dishwasher Safe: The glass jar and the lid are both 100% dishwasher safe. Hand Wash Tip: To maintain the maximum "sparkle" of the seed-textured glass, a quick hand wash with a soft sponge prevents mineral buildup in the tiny grooves.
