[Nhcoll-l] Historic jars gasket

[Laura Rincón]

Hello everybody,

I've been reading some thread emails about sealants in historic jars, but I
can't find what the best way to close these jars is (see photos attached).
I was planning to get Alsirol, but then I realized that there is a 3 mm.
space between the rim and lid. The "best" will be a gasket, but I'm not
sure if there are proper gaskets for these jars.

I would appreciate your recommendations or advice.

Thanks,
