you could also try some of the small shops on bedford and north 4-12 streets in Williamsburg, BK - definitely some great antiques there.

honestly, travel outside of NYC and bring them back. You can find those all over the North East and especially New England.

You are talking about Mason-style Jars of some type. Fruit jars more or less
The older ones had clasps much like Grolsch beer bottles: http://www.grolsch.com/ or http://www.fohbc.com/FOHBC_Refer…
