ANTIQUE BLUE & WHITE STONEWARE BUTTER CROCK WITH LID

ORIGINAL FARM - TO -TABLE

THIS LITTLE CUTIE HAS BEEN AROUND AWHILE!

SWEET DESIGN MADE TO HOLD SEVERAL POUNDS OF SWEET BUTTER.

THESE OLD CROCKERY PIECES WERE NOT MADE TO LAST A LIFETIME, & WERE IN FACT MADE A BIT CRUDE & PRIMITIVE - WITH UNEVEN GLAZES  (SALT GLAZE) AND BUBBLE BURSTS. BUT IN THE PERIOD THEY WERE USED, THEY DID THE JOB.

BEAUTIFUL MONOCOMATIC BLUE GLAZE ON SANDY /GREY COLORED CLAY.

A REALLY NEAT OLD FARM –TO - TABLE PIECE IN GOOD CONDITION.

7" DIAMETER - 4 " TALL WITH LID

AS WITH ALL THIS OLD CROCKERY THERE ARE A FEW BUBBLE BURSTS & NICKS. THERE IS A “BITE” ON THE INSIDE RIM BUT DOES NOT SHOW WHEN LID IS ON & DOES NOT DISTRACT FROM PIECE (PHOTOS 5 & 6).  THERE ARE NO CRACKS OR LINES. PROBABLY HAD A LITTLE WIRE WITH WOOD SPOOL HANDLE ORIGINALLY. NO MORE, BUT COULD BE REPLACED VERY EASILY.

        A WONDERFUL DISPLAY PIECE!

PLEASE SEE PHOTOS ….IT’S OLD AND IT’S BEEN USED.

         NO SMOKE   NO PETS     SOLD “AS-IS”

SORRY FOR THE SHIPPING, THIS PIECE IS HEAVY & WILL BE PACKED VERY WELL FOR SHIPPING
