Exceptional Six-Gallon Stoneware Cream Jar with Grapes Decoration, Stamped "COWDEN & WILCOX / HARRISBURG, PA," circa 1865, ovoid jar with tooled shoulder, finely-thrown rim, and applied lug handles, decorated with a very large decoration of a cluster of grapes hanging from a vine with two leaves and two corkscrewing tendrils. A rare and impressive size for Harrisburg stoneware, featuring a desirable motif in excellent color. Provenance: A fresh-to-the-market example, consigned from Baltimore County. Excellent condition with some tight lines on right side of jar's front and a few in-the-firing chips to underside at edge.
