This ceramic canister is beautifully crafted with attention to detail. The crackle design is lovely and unique, it looks beautiful in my kitchen. The inside and outside of the canister have a flawless smooth glazed finish that make it easy to clean (I wash mine by hand), and the two-piece lid is a clever design that makes this container airtight without the need for silicone or rubber seals. The inner part of the lid fits perfectly into the mouth of the jar and pushes out any extra air, and the outer lid rests over both parts making it secure yet easy to open.It holds just over 16 ounces - I'm using mine for sugar, since I live in a humid tropical climate and it works well to keep moisture and pests out, but I may order another to keep loose leaf tea in because it's so elegant and well made. It arrived very carefully packaged and the seller offers a money back guarantee in case anything is damaged in transit.I especially like this jar for the two lids it has. One is the airtight one mentioned in the listing title; and the other is just a cover that fits loosely like the lids of ceramic cookie jars do. The airtight one can double as a container to dump or scoop some tea leaves out into, before putting them in a steeper basket or ball. It's definitely going to work well for keeping a small quantity of loose tea nearby, so I don't have to open the larger jar when I want some more.I ordered two of these from the same company. They feel super durable. The one with the gold lid has a screw on cap and the silver lid has a pressure cap. Both have an interior cap that pushes out extra air.These would work well for teas, “herbs”, coffee, bath salts, etc.thick glaze inside and out. Happy with these.The NCQIXIAO Ceramic Kitchen Canister is a very beautiful item. The two lids fit securely. The color is just yummy. Packaged with some coffee or tea, this would make a luxurious gift.I really like this cool vintage looking jar. It is very good quality but the shade of green was off for me and I had to return it, but I really liked it
