Fine Alkaline-Glazed Stoneware Jar with Iron Slip Decoration, attributed to Thomas Chandler at the Trapp & Chandler Pottery, Edgefield District, SC, circa 1848-1850, highly-ovoid jar with semi-rounded rim and large tab handles, decorated in iron slip with slip-trailed drape and looping line motifs over a light-green ground. Additional looping line decoration under each handle. A beautifully-glazed example, surviving in a remarkable state of preservation, uncommon to Edgefield stoneware. Excellent, essentially as-made condition with a minuscule nick to reverse of one handle, possibly in-the-firing. H 15".
