A cobalt decorated 2 gallon stoneware crock, dating to the mid to late 19th C. This crock is decorated with a very folky & rare jack-o-lantern or pumpkin face design. The handles on either side are very small, they look almost like ears. This piece is in great condition, with a small chip to either handle and a very thin spider line on the bottom, appears to be in the making (see pictures). It has a small amount of light gray spray paint on the bottom, below the design. This could probably be removed quite easily. There are no other chips, cracks or hairlines. I found this piece recently in a local estate on the eastern end of Long Island. This crock measures 11 1/4" tall and 9" in diameter. I am listing this exceptional piece of stoneware with NO RESERVE!! Please see my other auctions for more great early primitives and folk art (pictured).
Payment expected within 7 days of auction's end, item will be shipped UPS ground. Insurance is included in the price listed for shipping, this crock will be double boxed and packed very carefully. International bidders, please contact me for a shipping quote. If you have any questions regarding this item, please email me before bidding, so that I may provide additional information and / or pictures.

I do accept other forms of payment ie; money orders, cashier's checks & personal checks (with time to clear before item is shipped). I didn't notice this option wasn't still available when I listed these items.
