Looking for some extra realistic and low prim glassware? Tired of flat and unrealistically transparent textures on your glass? Look no further than the Apothecary Jar Collection from MJSMTech!
This unique builder kit comes with six styles of apothecary jars and three different lids. Each piece uses a single custom sculpt to help keep your prim counts low and your realism level high!
The custom lids can be mixed and matched for multiple configurations. Each sculpt has a custom texture, and also included are eight high quality reflection mapped alpha map textures to help you get started and bring a new sense or realism to your builds.

Really nice sculpts, but I couldn't get the textures to look decent for my purposes. Still met the need!
I had a set of apothecary jars already finished and all set to to sell in my store but stopped the presses when I saw these, which are exactly like what I had in mind in the first place before I settled on something less cool.
Clear, reflective glass is one of the hardest things to fake in SL, and these do a really decent job of it. My only complaint is that they're almost TOO transparent. I actually de-alpha'd them a little in photoshop and prefer them that way but you might like them exactly as is, depending what you're making with them. The reflections are nicely done, though, and it was an easy change to make.
The shapes are interesting and well made (I was particularly impressed with the plain round jar with the metal lid, which surprised me!) and hold up pretty well even at a distance. The kit itself is well organized and logical and easy to use.
I hope you'll make more glassware! These are great and not enough people know how to do the reflections correctly!
