Item 8792
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 2 Gallon Jar made and stamped by the "Beaumont Pottery, York, Maine."  
 
It is the work of Jerry Beaumont who inscribed his cross, initials, and the date 1984 on the bottom.  In my humble opinion, Mr. Beaumont has been and continues to be one of the best contemporary potters in America today.  His work from York, Maine was some of his finest.  
 
This beauty features the Pottery Stamp with Cobalt Wash, a Stag with Pine Trees and Fence on Each Side.  The decoration was used in the mid to late 19th century by the potteries at Bennington, VT, and Fort Edward and Utica, NY.
 
Comes from an extensive Massachusetts collection whose owner had personal ties to both the potter and the artist.  She gave me the privilege of buying this and many other Beaumont items. 
 
Exceptional Condition.  As made.  No damage of any kind.
