Item 8670
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 1 Gallon Jar made and stamped by the "Beaumont Pottery, York, Maine."  
 
It is the work of Jerry Beaumont who inscribed his cross and the date of 1986 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 a Preserve Jar Form, Pottery Stamp, and a House Surrounded by a Fence Executed with a Slip Cup on Bright Cobalt.  The house has a smoking chimney, and rests on a stone foundation.  Stands 9" tall.  
 
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 (including the sign from the York, Maine pottery). 
 
Exceptional Condition.  As made.  No damage of  any kind.  Three chips in the making on the underside edge where the tripod was used in the kiln.
