Hi everyone, here is Lukas, the person behind Pearl Jars (www.pearljars.com). I am so grateful for reading your comments about our closures, you really understand the whole concept. I always felt strange that we are still using the same systems as 70 ago and so I thought it might be time for something new. I love that we are still using great systems such as Weck, but I also felt the need for a reusable canning lid in the Mason Jar style.
Just to address a couple of points directly from this discussion:
You're correct about the lids, our Luna Preserve jars (
https://www.pearljars.com/en/collections/canning-preserving/products/original-luna-preserving-jar) indeed feature a specially designed lid with a rim, making vacuum release easy and protecting the integrity of the sealing ring. We're working on making this information clearer on our website!
Regarding the availability of jars separately, we're actively gathering customer feedback to better adapt our product offering, including more flexibility in purchasing individual jars or specific shapes.
Lastly, I'm excited to share that Pearl Jars are now more easily accessible in the UK through our partnership with Glass Jars & Bottles. You can browse and purchase the range directly here:

Thanks again for your insights, they help us continuously improve!
