Pickles have some kind of acids which generated naturally, due to which pickle's taste is sour. If it is stored in a metallic container,naturally generated acids will react with the metal & thus the compounds of metal can cause harm to health.Commercially prepared pickles have citric acid added as preservative & in some cases Acetic acid also . So due to presence of these acids these are not stored in metallic container.
Pickles are destroyed due to fungal effects in the long term , this fungal effect is minimised by sun light or natural lights,So storage them in a glass container, is for the easy approach of sun light to the pickle. You have also observed that after 3-4 month interval these containers are also placed for whole day in sun light for the same purpose. While storing pickles in metallic container , blocks the sun light approach thus due to fungus pickles damage possibilities are much more in short period.
