This 1.5 oz glass jar from Fujima uses a classic clamp lid to create an airtight seal. It’s a reliable and portable solution for keeping herbs and spices fresh.
The Fujima Glass Jar with a Clasp is a commitment to preserving freshness. This 1.5 oz jar offers a dependable solution for storing valuable herbs, spices, or other small items. Its tough glass body and powerful mechanical clasp work together to create a secure, stable environment. Whether on a shelf or packed for a trip, this small stash jar keeps your contents exactly as you left them.
It is a compact storage container built for security and freshness. It features a traditional wire-bail clasp that uses pressure to create an airtight seal with a durable gasket. Unlike simple screw-top jars, the clamp lid design offers a more robust and consistent seal every time you close it, making it an ideal airtight herb storage container.
Understanding its components shows why this jar is a superior choice for long-term freshness. Each part is designed to contribute to a secure and inert storage environment.
| Specification | Value (What it Does) | Benefit (For You) |
|---|---|---|
| 1.5 oz Capacity | Holds a personal amount of material (approx. 3-7 grams). | Prevents waste and is easy to carry without being bulky. |
| Glass Construction | Provides an inert, non-porous surface. | Preserves the pure flavor and aroma of your contents without contamination. |
| Metal Wire Clamp Lid | Applies consistent mechanical pressure to the gasket. | Creates a highly secure, airtight seal that you can feel locking into place. |
| Rubber Gasket | Forms a barrier that blocks air and moisture exchange. | Keeps contents fresh, locks in aromas, and protects against humidity. |
This isn't just any small container. The design choices directly address storage needs, from the seal's mechanics to the material's purity.
The airtight hinged lid relies on simple, effective physics. The wire bail acts as a lever. When you close the clasp, it pulls the lid down with force, compressing the rubber gasket between the glass lid and the jar's rim. This pressure creates a barrier that is far more secure than a simple screw-on lid. This is why clamp top jars with a quality gasket are considered truly airtight.
Glass is chemically inert, meaning it won't react with your stored materials. This guarantees purity of flavor and aroma. Unlike plastic, it doesn't hold onto smells from previous contents after washing. Before making a choice, consider this simple checklist.
Following a simple process ensures you get the most out of your airtight container. This workflow maximizes the freshness and quality of your contents.
While other options exist, the Fujima glass clamp jar offers a unique combination of protection, reusability, and style that makes it a standout choice.
| Container Type | Airtightness | Odor Control | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Glass Clamp Jar (Fujima) | Excellent | Excellent | Maximum freshness and reusability. |
| Standard Screw-Top Jar | Good | Fair to Good | Basic storage, less critical contents. |
| Silicone Container | Good | Good | Durability and portability (non-breakable). |
| Mylar Bag | Excellent (if heat-sealed) | Excellent | Long-term, single-use storage. |
Proper care will ensure your jar provides a perfect seal for years. The glass body is dishwasher safe, but we recommend hand-washing the lid and gasket to prolong their life. To clean, unlatch the lid and gently remove the rubber gasket. Wash the jar, lid, and gasket in warm, soapy water. To remove any lingering smells, use a solution of vinegar and water or a specialized glass cleaner. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling.
