Exceptional 5 Gallon Hamilton & Jones / Greene Co. PA Storage Crock


Back to Pennsylvania Stoneware

Item #WPHC01


Description:

The entire front of this crock is profusely decorated top to bottom with stencilled and freehand cobalt blue decoration. The stenciling reads,

Hamilton & Jones
Greensboro.
Greene Co. Pa
5

The stencilled "Greene Co." is hard to find. The dots under the rim are an unusual touch, as are the 2 stars next to the large 5 at the bottom. There are 2 very deeply incised areas beneath the rim--one below the series of dots and the other below that one. The ears are also decorated. These unusual qualities make this piece very exceptional. In addition, the salt glaze is perfect and there are no burns or flaws of any kind. In fact, this magnificent jar is in mint condition. It was made c1870.
