A container for liquids is configured for two-plane stacking with one or two similarly constructed containers; it comprises a body having a rectanguloid configuration with a top wall defining a recessed liquid pouring spout area and a raised handle area. The bottom wall has an underface included within a downwardly extending peripheral border defined by a series of spaced legs and pockets between the legs. The configurations of the top and bottom walls allow such containers to be stacked in two planes: one plane includes containers one directly above the other or one above the other but vertically offset thereto; a second plane includes containers in vertical planes 90.degree. to one anoother. The handle area has rectangular planar faces and a handle bar therebetween, both cooperating with the legs and pockets of one or two superposed containers to secure them in stacked relations.
