| 'CHINESE RED' Squat PITCHER--COLE POTTERY |
|
This is a RARE SHAPE for a PITCHER, although the flattened bulbous bottom and straight neck are seen in vases and urns, I have not seen a pitcher in this configuration before. The shaded RED LEAD GLAZE is probably 'CHINESE RED' since it has darkened on the outside where the heat from the fire was hottest. 'Chinese Red' is one of the hardest glazes to master, since the colors can range from CRIMSON-TO-BLACK, depending on the heat of the fire. This pitcher is in 'like new' condition. There are a few 'bubbles' in the glaze and a fine 'scratch made during the firing process. This piece has a striking appearance and will be at the center of attention in your collection. It is not signed on the bottom, but it could be a Cole, since the Cole potteries are known for Chinese Red glazes. Take a look at the attached photos and be your own judge. The pitcher measures 4 3/4" across the bottom, 6 1/2" across at base of handle, 3 7/8" across the opening, 4 1/8" from spout to opening back, 6" from spout to handle back and 5 1/4" tall. This RARE beauty can be yours for the "BUY IT NOW" price of $42.95.
