Two-Gallon Stoneware Jug with Cobalt Triple-Tulip Decoration, Stamped "PFALTZGRAFF & / YORK, PA", circa 1855-1880, semi-ovoid jug with rounded spout and applied handle, decorated with an elaborate brushed design of a three tulips emanating from a central stem. Cobalt highlights to maker's mark, capacity mark, and handle terminals. This piece appears to be a maker's mark variant, which lacks the typical "CO." at the end of the stamp. Provenance: Deaccessioned from the Pfaltzgraff Pottery Archives, York, PA. A spout chip and a minuscule spout nick. Otherwise excellent condition.
