Item 13283
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this Tiny Stonewaer Ovoid Jar Stamped "R. C. R. Phila."
 
This is the mark of Richard Remmey who ran the family pottery in Philadelphia from the 1860's until the turn of the century (Phil Shaltenbrand, Big Ware Turners, pp. 8-10). 
 
It is the smallest stamped Remmey jar I have ever encountered. 
 
Circa 1860, this beauty features a Very Small Size, Tooled Squared Rim and Shoulder, Pottery Stamp, and Three Units of Brushed Comma Vining Around the Shoulder. Stands only 6 1/8" tall. 
 
Good Condition. A 1/4" sliver chip inside the rim, and a faint hairline from the floral to the base on one side (closeup).  No base chips, cracks, stains, or restoration.
