Are the jars actually this pleasant pale blue color in real life? And secondly, is the company name (Ball) on both sides of the jar or just one side?

No they are not as the picture shows at all (I was hoping for a pale Tiffany bluish color). They are a bright aquaish color, much darker thank I'd hoped. I can't recall if they had the name on both sides and I already shipped them back. Hope that helps. IMG_4142.png

I think they are a tiny bit darker - more teal IRL. "Ball / PERFECT MASON" is on one side, with 1913-1915 / 100 years of America Heritage / made in USA" opposite. The other 2 sides have identical cup/oz/mL measures.

The actual color is slightly darker, a very nice light blue. "Ball, Perfect Mason" is on one side. "1913-1915, 100 years of American Heritage" is on the opposite side. The other sides have oz. measures marked.

I actually ordered the green ones. Ball is only on one side with "1913-1915100 years of American HeritageMade in the uSA" on the other. Measurements on one side.

I gave the ball to my daughter as a gift. I want to say hers is blue, but am not certain. I know it was not orange or peach. Hope this helps.

I purchased these and they fit perfectly! Question: are your jars Ball? That may be the problem if they are not! I know there are other brands of glass jars. Hope this helps

All glass jars of this type sold as Ball or Kerr are made by Jarden and all are Mason jars. However, this line does not have "Perfect Mason" on the side. Look for their Heritage Edition. The new 125th Anniversary edition, gallon size, has "Perfect Mason" on it also.I just looked at the anniversary edition and it only says "Mason" on the side as far as I can see online. Its a nice jar. I may buy one.

that's the color it glows when exposed to light. Even in the jar, when exposed to light, the substance will glow. Cool, huh?

Yes the color is pretty accurate. It's the same color as a regular cardboard box. (It is in fact, just cardboard).

Blue is pretty, and cookingal's recommendation is a good one. I like the limited-edition blue jars for gift-giving. These are great for that, too, and perhaps even more appropriate. Part of the beauty of canning, for those of us who are addicted to it, is seeing the beauty of the food itself. A rose wine jelly in these would like like a tourmaline on the shelf. Vivid vegetables such as carrots, corn, or salsa, shine through clearly, whereas if the jars were blue or gray, they'd look muddy. To everything there is a purpose.... Happy preserving. :)

It is pictured with the FourSide jar in other color selections, so yes. I would not recommend their fourside jar, however. I purchased two within a three year period and with both jars the rubber gasket underneath corroded with use (smelled like burning rubber, black fluid running out.) Both my jars ended up leaking so badly that they cannot be used. Read the reviews, and you will see many other customers had the same problem. I called Blendtec twice and was on hold for almost two hours and never got through. Other customers who did get through said that Blendtec was not helpful. I wish I had not purchased their blender.

As long as the bottle says COLOR ENDURE then you are okay. The red and purple colors are not picked up as true color. Color Endure is a very light purple and the lid is a reddish tone. The pictures just don't represent the product very well.

Yes it is, it looks like a dark cream in the picture, but more of a light yellowish color in person. Very pretty if your wanting it to match some yellow hues

Yes, these are food preserving/canning jars, and several sizes are sold on Amazon. However, Fresh Preserving (Ball, Jardin, Kerr) ships to your state, and so does Amazon. The term "Mason" jar is a generic now. It used to be an actual brand and was the first widely-used one. It's like people who say they need a kleenex--Kleenex is a top-level brand of facial tissue which became ubiquitous. Other companies now manufacture the product, and shouldn't be called "kleenex." While these are lovely, and I buy them, regular Ball/Kerr jars are less expensive.

It has been quite a long time since purchase. I have other marbles as well so I just added to the jar. My grandson (age 4) and I play "marbles". I must have been happy with them and if I was not I would have complained to the seller. My purchase goal was to increase the variety of colors and textures and it did help to do that. I hope this helps you.

Yes, the box is green & yellow & I've been buying this product for over a year & have never seen a blue box....hmmm I live on the west coast, & maybe it's because of where you are in the country?? Not sure, but I won't use any other product, as I've tried them all & I do much better on these. Hope that helps!

I am going to guess that these are not made in the USA. These are NOT authentic Ball brand Mason jars. Ball brand is made in the USA and according to this article I will link below most of the competitors are made in China. "Our jars and lids are still made in the USA, and if you look across the competitive set ... they are sourcing their jars from China. (Ball jars are predominantly made in Indiana, with some production also occurring at plant in Salem, N.J)." -Chris Carlisle, senior director-marketing for the Ball home-canning products http://adage.com/article/news/ball-mason-jars-age/240841/

Sorta, and rather neutral--perhaps a little on the reddish side. It's not a bluish purple--maybe a very deep/dark cranberry. I am totally happy with it--color and quality of product. It's more than I expected.
