French farmers developed glass cloches, also called bell jars, to shelter tender plants from inclement weather and pests. Today, they're prized by collectors and fetch high prices in antique markets. Ours are faithful reproductions perfect for protecting plants, or for displaying favorite shells, stones and other special keepsakes.

Comments about Glass Cloches:

I have been eyeing the cloche for some time. I used them as a youth, when they were definitely utility items rather than collector's items. I recently started a raised bed vegetable garden and deer proofed it with fencing. I can't wait until I can use the cloche next spring to nurture a tomato plant a bit before its usual time! Thanks for making this bit of nostalgia possible!
