Item 1192
 
Coming to you from Doc's Crocks is this rare 1 Gallon Pitcher made by the Whites Pottery of Utica, N.Y. 
 
Dating between 1890 and 1907, this piece is a wonderful example of the skill that the Whites Pottery had gained in molded stoneware during those years.  There was not one available to feature in Christopher Bensch, The Blue and the Gray: Oneida County Stoneware. 
 
This beauty features an Unusually Tall and Exaggerated Scalloped Rim and Spout, a Medallion Featuring Two Cupids on Each Side of the Neck, and a 10-sided Base with Grapevines on Top and Leaves on the Sides-- all Sitting Upon a Fancy Footer.  All the decoration is crisp and accented with cobalt.  Stands 9 3/4" to the top of the spout.
 
Very Good Condition.  Six nibbles on the left side of the spout (closeup).  That's it!  No inner rim or base chips, hairlines, cracks, stains, or restoration.
