Alchemy jar

Glass jars are sold throughout Elanthia in local alchemist shops. These jars hold up to 20 doses of items used in alchemy, such as alchemy drops, foraged items, and gems. The jars do not hold skins. The jars reduce those 21 items (including the jar) to just one item for item inventory quantity reasons. This feature is a huge boon to alchemists and Adventurer's Guild gem hoarders because of the 500-item limit.

Shortly after the release of the jars, GM Bernt opened a merchant tent that traveled to different towns selling jars, bottles and beakers that held 50 doses instead of the standard 20. The shop was simply called Inside a White Tent. 100-item jars were later released at Duskruin Arena costing 250 bloodscrip.

A full 100-item jar will weigh 11 lbs when full of gems and 50 lbs when full of herbs. Weight will scale down based on capacity.

Analyze

20-item jar

You analyze your glass jar and sense that the creator has provided the following information:

This glass jar is designed to hold small, nearly identical items -- in particular, gems, alchemy ingredients other than critter skins, etc.

Alterations are permitted to the base description following the 15/15/15 rule in ALTER 2, provided that it continues to make sense that the contents would be identifiable without looking inside.

It can hold a maximum of 20 items.  PUT items in to store them.  SHAKE the jar to get them back out.

Description

When an item is added, the description changes from "a glass jar" to "a glass jar containing {items}"

an opalescent glass jar

an opalescent glass jar containing ayana leaves

The jars can be customized when ORDERed to be different colors for ease of sorting. The jars cannot be dyed via the dyer's tents. When the full system is in place, the dyer's tent dyes will be able to dye empty jars.

During the first two days of sale, these jars were just "a glass jar". The opalescent part was added later when the colors were made manipulatable.
