Item 1304
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this wonderful 1 Gallon Blue and White Spongeware Pitcher.
 
According to older dealers here in Ohio, it was made near Navarre, Ohio.  
 
Dating around 1870, this beauty is hand-turned in heavy clay to create a bulbous form and pinched spout, and blue sponging on a cream-colored glaze.   A true piece of country spongeware.  
 
Excellent condition. Two chips inside the rim (1/4", 5/8"), and a chip on the bottom (1/4"). That's it!  No outer rim chips, hairlines, cracks, stains, or restoration. 
 
A fine piece of primitive country spongeware.
