Antique Oil Jars For Sale on 1stDibs

An assortment of antique oil jars is available at 1stDibs. Each of these unique antique oil jars was constructed with extraordinary care, often using ceramic, terracotta and earthenware. Antique oil jars have been made for many years, and versions that date back to the 18th Century alongside those produced as recently as the 20th Century. Not every interior allows for large antique oil jars, so small antique oil jars measuring 4.5 inches across are available at 1stDibs. Antique oil jars have been a part of the life’s work for many furniture makers, but those produced by Henriot Quimper are consistently popular.

How Much are Antique Oil Jars?

Antique oil jars can differ in price owing to various characteristics — the average selling price at 1stDibs is $1,560, while the lowest priced sells for $325 and the highest can go for as much as $22,043.

Finding the Right Vases And Vessels for You

For thousands of years, vases and vessels have had meaningful functional value in civilizations all over the world. In Ancient Greece, ceramic vessels were used for transporting water and dry goods, holding bouquets of flowers, for storage and more. Outside of utilitarian use, in cities such as Athens, vases were a medium for artistic expression — pottery was a canvas for artists to illustrate their cultures’ unique people, beliefs and more. And pottery skills were handed down from fathers to sons.

Every antique and vintage vase and vessel, from decorative Italian urns to French 19th-century Louis XVI–style lidded vases, carries with it a rich, layered story. 

On 1stDibs, there is a vast array of vases and vessels in a variety of colors, sizes and shapes. Our collection features vessels made from delicate materials such as ceramic and glass as well as durable materials like rustproof metals and stone.

A contemporary vase can help introduce an air of elegance to your minimalist space while an antique Chinese jar would make a luxurious addition to an Asian-inspired interior. Alternatively, if you’re looking for a statement piece, consider an Art Deco vase crafted by Italian architect and furniture designer Gio Ponti.

Vases and vessels — be they handmade pots, handblown glass wine bottles or otherwise — are versatile, practical decorative objects, and no matter your particular design preferences, furniture style or color scheme, they can add beauty and warmth to any home. Find yours on 1stDibs today.
