Stoneware Jug with Pewter Top
Antiques : Pottery
This lovely stoneware jug has a bright blue top and a cream colored bottom. There is a checkerboard band around the midsection. The handle is molded and is the same cream color as the bottom. The top appears to be pewter with an enameled bead on the thumb press. At the left edge of the pewter top just behind the hinge are the words "Thomas & Sons Patent." There was a company located in East Liverpool, Ohio with the name of R. Thomas & Sons that operated from 1873 to 1957. This jug appears to be from the 1870 to 1890 period. There are no nicks, chips or cracks, but there is an interior mold flaw just below the hinge on the back wall. It stands approximately 7 1/4 inches tall and is about 4 1/2 inches at its most bulbous. This is an outstanding piece of the potter's art and would make a wonderful display piece in any home.
