<p>[QUOTE="Walter Del Pellegrino, post: 66118, member: 90"]The shape dates back to late medieval, early Renaissance Europe. The shape, known, as an Albarello, is often referred to as a drug jar. These jars were not originally meant to be used as decorative vases but rather storage jars. Most existing early examples have lost their covers but almost certainly they were produced with lids to cover the contents inside the jar.
