Dragon Jar or Canister or Something

[anthonyrosenthal74]

I'm a huge fan of dragons, and I'm trying to find something, be it wood, glass, metal, or whatever with a dragon or dragons that I can store tobacco in. Just a little something to put up on my shelf with my other dragons and my pipe. Has anyone here seen anything like that?

$18 on eBay: 4½" tall x 2½" lid dia.


$13 at Amazon: 6" tall x 3½" wide :wink:

Search Etsy - all kinds of handcrafted things available there.
Or check for a cool looking dragon stencil, and get some glass etching supplies from a hobby store. Apply stencil, brush on glass etching compound (in accordance with the directions), let sit the correct amount of time, wipe off, remove stencil, voila!

My question would be...what kind of dragons?
If you are into the Asian style of dragons, the above options are great and you will find many choices on the internet and any flee market in just about any major city.
If you are more into the Fantasy / European Traditional type dragons your options may be limited. I would think your best option would be to find something like a large metal votive that you could put a baccy jar inside of.

I like all things dragon, but I do prefer the fantasy/European style dragons. The jars pictured above are nice, but not really me.

Like this one. It doesn't seal but you could message the seller and ask for one that does.

Getting closer to something like what I'm looking for... I could totally dig that jar.

Try this and its only 6 bucks.

still searching, but if i can't find something else, I'll happily settle for the jar above.

I really like that one as well, eaglerico. Thanks

Ok here's a couple things on this link that are definitely more to my liking... would probably have to keep my tobacco in ziplock bags though.
