Anchor Hocking Montana 1.5 Gallon Glass Storage Jar with Black Metal Lid — Wide Mouth, Silicone Gasket

Anchor Hocking Montana 1.5 Gallon Glass Jar with a black metal lid is a heavy-duty, wide‑mouth storage jar made in the USA for pantry organization and display.

This clear, 1.5-gallon jar combines thick-walled glass with a screw-on black metal lid and silicone gasket to keep dry goods visible and reasonably protected from air. Its oversized lid knob and substantial weight make it easy to handle and stable on kitchen counters or pantry shelves. Because the jar is glass, it resists staining and odors, and it’s fully recyclable when its useful life is over.

How does this jar keep ingredients fresh on the counter?

The jar uses a metal lid with a silicone gasket that seals against the glass lip, reducing air exchange and helping slow moisture pickup for many dry goods. It’s not vacuum-sealed, but the gasketed closure is a practical way to keep pantry staples organized and reasonably protected from humidity and pests.

• Silicone gasket creates a tighter, more reliable seal than a plain lid.
• Thick glass walls reduce temperature transfer from room to contents.
• Wide mouth simplifies scooping and reduces accidental spills.
• Heavy base adds stability so the jar won’t easily tip on counters.

What can I store in a 1.5-gallon Anchor Hocking jar?

This size holds larger quantities of dry goods so you can store cereals, flour, rice, pasta, cookies, candy, pet treats and bulk coffee or tea. It’s also useful for non-food items like craft supplies, baking tools, or laundry pods—anything that benefits from being visible and accessible.

• About 1.5 gallons capacity — suitable for family-size pantry staples.
• Wide mouth fits scoops, measuring cups and large utensils.
• Clear glass makes contents easy to identify at a glance.
• Dishwasher-safe for convenient cleanup after use.

Is this jar durable and safe for everyday kitchen use?

Anchor Hocking manufactures the jar from thick, tempered-style glass to resist chipping and to feel substantial on the shelf. Glass does not absorb odors or stains like many plastics, and it won’t leach chemicals into food when used as intended.

• Thick-walled construction for improved durability.
• All-glass interior won’t retain odors or colors from stored foods.
• Black metal lid with oversized knob for easy gripping and opening.
• Top-rack dishwasher safe for most parts—follow care instructions.
