Sounds like a regular canning jar lid without the
middle insert. You can buy canning jar lids and
substitute the middle with some wire mesh.
Usually sold in grocery stores.

Ball (mason) jars should have the screw-rings and the lids... You should be able to replace the flat-lid with some mesh you buy and cut yourself.
I buy my jars and lids at the local market, and have also seen them at times in Longs and Walgreens Drug Stores and ACE Hardware http://www.acehardware.com/sm-alltrista-ball-and-reg-wide-mouth-mason-jar--pi-1276025.html
Good Luck

A lot of times people just take a decorative material and place it over the ball lids and seal with the ring and tie with ribbon or hot glue material to it.
