This cookie jar depicts an African American Chef. It measures approximately 10" high, 6.25" wide and 6.25" inches deep. It was made by the National Silver Company. It is in very good condition, especially considering it is more than 70 years old. It does have a hairline crack on the right side of the head/chest portion. This is not very visible because some previous owner covered it up with some glue - or nail polish?-with glitter in ...it. This repair is not distracting, in my opinion. If it were up to me I would keep it. But I think you could remove the repair by using something like alcohol or nail polish remover. That's just a guess. There is also a very small hairline on the lower portion - shown in photo # 10. I didn't even notice this until I was taking photos. Thank you for your interest!A-18
