Item 3032
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this uncommon Stoneware Jar made for "'La Delicatessa', A Confection in Cheese."  
 
This jar was made by the Whites Pottery of Utica, New York between 1900 and 1907 when they made their exquisite blue and gray pottery.  You can see it in Christopher Bensch, The Blue and the Gray: Oneida County Stoneware, p. 27.
 
This beauty features the Product Name Embossed and Accented with Rich Cobalt on the Front and Raised Dots on the Back.  The lid repeats the raised dots pattern.  Stands 3 1/2" tall and 3 1/4" wide.  
 
Very Good Condition.  The base has three ping lines on the top of the rim (1/4" to 3/4"), one of which has a 1 1/2" line below that does not go through (closeup).  The lid has a minor, narrow 1/4" rough spot on the bottom of the overhang.  Nothing else to report.
