This is an airtight glass stash jar with a unique galaxy leaf print and a strong clamp lid. It's a great choice for keeping small amounts of herbs, spices, or tea fresh and secure.
This compact and stylish storage solution from Ted Miller Innovations is designed for freshness and discretion. It combines a functional airtight seal with a striking metallic galaxy and leaf motif, making it as much a decor piece as a utility item. Constructed from durable frosted glass, this square jar features a robust metal latching system to lock in contents and contain odors. Its 1.5-ounce capacity is ideal for personal use.
Every element of this jar is designed with preservation and convenience in mind. The combination of a strong mechanical seal and quality glass material provides a reliable barrier against air and moisture, helping maintain the integrity of what's inside.

| 1.5 fl oz (44ml) Capacity | Holds a small, personal amount of material. | Perfect for daily use or managing multiple spices without waste. |

The effectiveness of this jar comes from its classic clamp-style closure. Unlike a simple screw-top, the metal latch applies consistent, forceful pressure onto the lid. This pressure compresses a thick silicone gasket, creating a physical barrier that stops air from entering or exiting. This makes it exceptionally reliable for maintaining freshness and containing strong odors.
Airtight Seal Checklist:
The frosted finish on the glass serves two main purposes. First, it offers a degree of privacy by obscuring the contents. Second, it diffuses direct, harsh light that can degrade the quality of light-sensitive materials like herbs or spices. While not fully opaque like a UV-blocking jar, the frosted surface provides a helpful layer of protection compared to standard clear glass.
This jar's 1.5 fl oz (44ml) volume makes it incredibly versatile for small-batch storage. It’s perfectly sized to hold a few grams of dried herbs, keeping them fresh for personal use. It’s also an excellent choice for a dedicated spice jar, protecting potent flavors like saffron or vanilla bean. Additionally, you can use it to store loose-leaf tea, single-brew coffee grounds, or small craft supplies.
When choosing a small storage container, the key differences often come down to material, seal type, and portability. While this Galaxy Jar excels with its strong clamp seal and style, other options might be better suited for different needs or budgets.
| Container | Best For | Seal Type | Material |
|---|---|---|---|
| Galaxy Leaf Clamp Jar (This Product) | Style & a very tight seal | Clamp Latch | Glass |
| Basic Screw-Top Glass Jar | Budget-friendly simplicity | Screw-Top | Glass |
| Silicone Stash Puck | Portability & non-stick use | Pressure Fit | Silicone |
| Small UV-Resistant Blackout Jar | Maximum light protection | Screw-Top | Coated Glass |
To keep your jar in top condition, we recommend gentle hand washing. Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge to clean the inside and outside of the glass. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemicals, as they can scratch the frosted finish or damage the metallic leaf print. The silicone gasket can be removed for a more thorough cleaning.
