Offering for your consideration we have a pretty portrait cracker jar. This beautiful Jar has teal / green on upper and lower halves with white in the center. There is some shadings of pale yellow as well. In the center is a lovely oval portrait area of two women. Handles on sides and lid look to be applied. There was gold foiling decoration at one time but much of this has faded due to age. This is still a very pretty item.
