Pacific Giftware Frankenstein Head Ceramic Cookie Jar

Dr. Frankenstein's Monster's head, vibrantly glazed and painted, nearly lifesize (it' smaller than a real head, but from a few yards back and placed in some shadowy noir lighting you could easily be fooled into thinking this was full-sized head)... And his skull opens up so you can put cookies in it! What could be better? Haha. I love it, and my kids love it. My wife -- well, she says she would love it if I only put it out for Halloween, but she's less excited that I'm planning on keeping it out on an 7-foot-high high shelf at the top of the basement stairs, to give anyone that opens the stairs a jump. I'm rationalizing that Frankenstein isn't just a once-a-year Halloween monster, he's also a part of classic literature and a mainstay of classic cinema. So he's a year-round decoration, right? For now, we're keeping dog treats in it -- which I figure makes for a much classier storage option than just keeping the dog treats in whatever ugly plastic bag or container they come in from the store. I saw that some other reviews found the lid to be too loose or too tight -- but I got lucky, it's a perfect fit. It seems to make a tight enough seal that I can't smell the dog treats once closed, and I don't think bugs or moisture will will be able to easily get in (there's a silicone/rubber ring around the inside of the lid to keep it nearly but probably not entirely air-tight), but at the same time it's very very easy to pull the top of Frank's off to get to his dog-treat-filled brains. It's also nicely packaged for shipping -- I've had some bad luck before ordering ceramic items like this that end up breaking during shipping, but this canister arrived in perfect condition, and it feels quite solid as well so I'm confident it'll last a very long time as long as it's never dropped. Anyway, I'm quite impressed with this item -- it was even nicer than I was expecting it to be.

I'm using this for decoration only, however it would work well for cookies as it has a nice seal on it to keep things fresh, the lid also has a hand mold on top that I think is a cool design. The colors are perfect and it really pops. Halloween is a big holiday for me and I love spookifying the house, the kids love it too. I kept all of the packaging to keep this safe year after year. Everytime I look at it will bring me so much joy. At the time I purchased this it was $26, for the size, quality and fantastic look it is a very good value.

charming, attention to detail makes it feel hand painted and crafted instead of mass produced. Mother in Law loved it for her birthday. Has good weight to it and good seal. Excellent size for price.

It makes me happy every time I walk in the kitchen and see him there. Such a cool piece and very well-made. It looks fantastic in person. I’m having no trouble with the lid. It’s an easy on and off and it fits a good amount of cookies if you actually use it for cookies.

Love him I have Frank his Babe and Vlad all slightly smaller than a real head but still verry cool. They need to make a Wolfman next.

This item is well packed and even more cool in person.

The very fun Frankenstein cookie jar is nicely made with a thicker than expected ceramic and perfectly painted and glazed. The rubber/plastic seal attached to the inside of the lid wasn't glued properly in place all around, and the cover would't close snugly. I was able to reposition the seal after carefully lifting it. Frankenstein will be used as home decor in my kitchen rather than as a cookie jar so the lid will remain closed, but if you are planning on using it as a cookie/candy jar where you will open and close it frequently, you may have a problem with the seal which is of lesser quality than the jar. Having said all that, this is a terrific addition to my Halloween decor.

Came nicely packaged. No chance of breaking or cracking. Well made. Nice paint and glaze. Top fits well.

Me llegó justo el de la imagen, había visto las reseñas y en las fotos salía otro un poco diferente, lo cual a mí me gustaba más ese sinceramente jaja por eso pienso regresarlo

I have nothing but good things to say. I bought it for my bathroom vanity where he sits out 365 days a year. I hide all my large hair claws in it, it's perfect in every way.

Tiene un buen tamaño, sin embargo no es igual al de la foto que muestran para la venta. Aun así, es un gran elemento decorativo. En la imagen no se aprecia cuan largo y ancho es, pero tiene buenas dimensiones para almacenar objetos variados o simplemente utilizarlo para adornar un espacio. Un regalo fuera de lo común :)

My spooky soul is loving this cookie jar!! It looks even better than the photos.
