1 LB Muth Honey Jars - Case of 12 Includes Corks And Shrink Bands

The traditional 1 lb (16 oz) Muth honey jar in a case of 12 — square flint glass, embossed "One Pound Pure Honey", natural cork stoppers, and clear heat shrink bands for tamper-evident finishing. The 1 lb size is the workhorse of any beekeeper's bottling line and the size most customers reach for first.

Features

• 12 jars per case
• 12 natural cork stoppers — wider-mouth, sized for 1 lb jars only
• 12 clear heat shrink bands for tamper-evident sealing
• Embossed "One Pound Pure Honey" with beehive/skep motif on the front panel
• Square shape with smooth sides for adhesive labels (label panel height: 4")
• Clear flint glass (FDA & USDA approved) — shows off honey color and clarity
• Largest jar in the Muth lineup (4 oz / 8 oz / 1 lb)

How it works in real life

The 1 lb Muth jar is what most market beekeepers reach for first. A full pound of honey is the standard retail unit at farmers markets, roadside stands, and farm shops — it's the size customers expect when they ask for "a jar of honey." The wider mouth makes filling faster than the smaller sizes (less drip-and-wait time), and the embossed "One Pound Pure Honey" tells the customer exactly what they're buying. Fill, cork, band, label — bottling routine in four steps. Bands move faster than jars (single-use, shrink-and-done), so the 250-pack refill is the standard restock for high-volume bottling.

Before you order

"1 lb Muth jar" and "16 oz Muth jar" are two names for the same jar — sized by the weight of honey it holds (1 lb = 16 oz by weight). The 1 lb / 16 oz cork and 16 oz shrink band are sized specifically for this jar — they will not fit the smaller 4 oz or 8 oz Muth sizes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the 1 lb Muth jar the same as the 16 oz Muth jar?

Yes — same jar, two names. The Muth lineup is named by honey weight, and 1 lb = 16 oz by weight.

How is this different from the 8 oz Muth jar?

Double the honey capacity, wider mouth, and a different cork/band size. The 1 lb is the standard full-pound retail size; the 8 oz is the boutique half-pound size.

Can I label these jars?

Yes. Square shape gives you smooth side panels for your farm/brand label.

Will my 1 lb corks and bands fit my smaller Muth jars?

No. The 1 lb jar has a wider mouth, so its cork and band are sized larger. Each Muth size has its own matching cork and band.

How many uses do I get out of one 250-pack of shrink bands?

About 20 cases worth of 1 lb jars (250 ÷ 12 ≈ 20.8 cases). Standard refill for any production beekeeper bottling in this size.
