Used for storage, glass has the unique characteristic of transparency.
Some canisters are opaque glass, but if you desire, transparent glass is available, allowing you to see whatever is in the canister.
Glass is also inert.
It doesn't react to much.
Also easy to clean, glass is good choice for cleanliness, which in a kitchen is especially important.
Three systems are used to keep the lids on canister sets.
Choose one depending upon how good a seal is needed.
The first one is also the most secure.
A system of levers is used to exert a constant pressure on the lid, keeping it in place.
Another system is the use of rubber or cork seal which employ a friction fit, and finally some merely use gravity.
All are perfectly good as long as they are matched to intended purpose of the glass canister set.
One useful aspect of glass is the way it can be shaped and molded.
This is something that artists have been exploiting for years.
Unlike appliances, glass kitchen canisters can be molded or shaped in unexpected ways.
Therein lies their artistic edge.
An appliance always looks like an appliance, however glass canister sets can look like almost anything.
Finding glass canister sets that really accent your kitchen, and demonstrate your artistic sense is very satisfying.
It's well worth the effort, and you'll agree that it was time well spent when you buy those perfect glass kitchen canisters.
