What are the dimensions? Is it glass or plastic?

The jar is clear glass. It is approximately 6 1/4" tall and 4 1/8" wide. It has a rubber gasket which does a very good job of holding the lid on tightly. The gasket will come off easily any time the lid is not "cinched" into place, as in the dishwasher. There are replacement gaskets available. I put my gaskets in a small lidded part of my silverware rack in the dishwasher. I like to use this container to mix powdered milk, pancake mix, and that sort of thing so I can shake it up with the lid cinched closed and then use whatever I want and refrigerate the rest. Works very well for me.

Are these jars good for Sourdough Starters.?

This product works great for sourdough starters! I wanted a jar with traditional glass lid and capacity. The larger mouth provides ease of discarding starter at feeding time and helps keep the jar clean. For gas venting, I use either a tea cloth or paper towel with a rubber band to fasten. The quality of Italian glass is superb to withstand the rigors of sourdough; not to mention, that when not in use (rarely-haha), they look very elegant un the kitchen.

Where are these jars manufactured?

I purchased 3 of these jars locally, and both the label and the jar itself says "made in Italy"

Some people are using theses jars for fermenting vegetables. How can it do that without air holes to release the gas?

On FIDO jars the seal is tight enough to keep air from coming in but loose enough to allow CO2 to escape when the pressure build up a little. you can see how different fermentation systems perform here: http://www.nourishingtreasures.com/index.php/2012/07/03/sauerkraut-survivor-final-report/

Good jar

Very nice wide thick jar. Perfect for my sour dough starter. Lid fits air tight.

Good jar that lasts forever

I bought this to replace an identical jar that my husband uses for kefir. He had inherited the previous jar from his mother years ago, and only needed to replace it because he had lost one of the metal pieces. We were delighted to find the same jar again! It seals securely, is easy to clean, and lasts forever.

Looks like great jar received wrong size

Looks like a great jar unfortunately I received a 101 1/2 ounce jar rather than 33 1/2 ounce jar. (Amazon warehouse problem not product). Must be very durable it was shipped in a craft paper envelope rather than a box and survived.

heavy duty

Tight fitting lid. I use it to ferment buttermilk. I'm trying to quit using plastic as it can leach into food especially acidic. Glass is safer and this is a thick jar that probably won't break easily.

Starter jar

Great jar for my sourdough starter. Gives it room to grow but seals tightly so it doesn’t grow mold.

Carefully packaged! "Squared corners" - not round. Quality appears excellent.

Carefully well-packaged! Inside the shipping box, the 33-3/4 ounce Bormioli Fido Rocco rubber sealed jar is wrapped and taped in multiple layers of bubble wrap. The jar is "square cornered" - meaning that its shape is not round. Inside the jar is a white seal to place around the rim of the lid. The quality of the jar seems to be excellent. However, I was hoping for a close match to the one that I currently use. Compared to this Bormioli jar, mine is round and shorter. The opening to my jar appears to be wider than this one. Thus, because of the increased height and narrower opening, I'll have to find a different use for this jar.

Como todos los productos de Bormioli son de la mejor calidad y van genial para todo tipo de conservas y almacenaje de comida. Yo los uso para el chucrut y son muy buenos.

Sehr gute Qualität, dickwandig und luftdicht. Ich habe 2 Gläser, eines für Kaffeepulver und eines für Mehl. Der Preis für 2 Gläser ist schon hoch, sie werden aber auch im Set angeboten, dann sind sie günstiger.
