These Italian-Made Mason Jars Are the Only Ones I’m Buying for My Kitchen Now
I’ve been on a Mason jar kick lately, and it seems I’m not the only one. I’ve been seeing them everywhere this past summer. In an Instagram video, Reese Witherspoon and her daughter were spotted sipping iced tea from the classic containers. Joanna Gaines posted a clip where she stored her plum jelly in some adorable quilted Mason jars. Ball just launched some limited edition, vintage-inspired Mason jars, and they’ve been flying off shelves.
Even though their popularity seems to be spiking right now, Mason jars are one of the most versatile pieces of kitchen gear — food storage, meal prep, drink containers, and so on — which is why they’ve been around for well over a century. Plenty of variations are available, from ones with colored glass to ones shaped like fruit, and I just came across ones that are the perfect shape for drinking. Plus, these Italian-made jars are beyond stunning and come in a pack of 12 for only $31. Read on for more details!

What Are the Bormioli Rocco Quattro Stagioni Mason Jars?
These 13.5-ounce jars are modeled after traditional milk bottles, so you can sip your coffee, smoothie, or juice in style. The outside is embossed with a floral design and the Italian phrase “Quattro Stagioni,” which translates to “Four Seasons,” and it’s topped off by a golden lid. The mouth at the top is a little over 2 inches wide, making them easier to drink out of than traditional Mason jars. Of course, you can also do more than just store your drinks in these stunning bottles. The airtight metal lid can also seal sauces, syrups, jellies, fruits, grains — you get the idea — inside. The glass is crafted in Italy, using “only the finest sands and materials by some of the best glassmakers in the world,” so you can be confident that they’ll hold up through it all (including the dishwasher and microwave).
What Amazon Shoppers Are Saying
Average Rating: 4.7/5
“Beautiful bottles. Even prettier with my syrup in them.” — Kelly T.
“Love these. I find the size perfect for decanting individual servings of soup (Julia Child’s French Onion, at the moment) to put in the refrigerator. Makes lunch or dinner so much easier. Quick rinse of the jars and they go into the dishwasher. I wash the lids by hand. Added bonus that the lids fit these and the larger “milk-size” jars also made by this manufacturer. Arrived quickly. Well packaged.” — PugMom
“I got these to store my second fermentation kombucha in. They are a unique shape, and I like that the mouth of the bottle isn’t super narrow. These were also packaged really well, so nothing came broken.” — km
You’ll be so glad you switched from regular cups to these versatile containers, especially when you get to show off how gorgeous they are to guests. A little over $30 is a small price to pay to upgrade your drinkware and food storage collections.
